The few times I've worn out or broken a Craftsman tool I've just taken it
into a Sears and
asked for a new one - never had a hassle. If some other brand would give a
lifetime
warranty that included theft (and didn't require a receipt!) I'd gladly
switch.

There are other lifetime warranty tools like Husky for example but you have to
ship them back to the factory. Stores that sell them don't satisfy warranty
claims. There's always Snap On but there a little pricy for the average home
owner plus it would probably be difficult to get the salesman to make your
house a regular stop in his truck.
