They also have an SAE set:

However, these don't have the lever for switching directions (you have to flip
the wrench over). I think the ability to
switch directions easily is worth the extra money. For instance, to remove a
rusted-on or partly stripped nut it often
helps to go back-and-forth, and removing, flipping and re-applying the wrench
is extra hassle.
