High quality product that has just one annoying flaw if you're using a torque wrench. The head of the tool is not metric, it's 1" (25,4 mm) and required a 1" socket to fit correctly. If you use a 26 mm socket you will risk to damage the tool. It would be nice that the shop will also sold the Park Tool 1" socket for 3/8 torque wrench.
Another great tool to have.

NICE Original
The socket is good and strong, as expected from Park Tool. However, pay attention that the drive part is 1" (1 inch, 25.4 mm) across flats. A 1" socket is not easy to find here in Europe. I got one from USA, but... in the workshop you don't actually need to use the lockring tool with a socket/wrench. Just clamp it in a bench vise, splines up, and put the wheel from the top. The wheel itself becomes the "wrench", a lot of torque can be applied by turning it. The only problem with this method is, when you reinstall the cassette, you can't tighten it to the exact torque spec (which is a pretty wide range, though).
