Your pic suggests its a Home Depot order item; I see a similar version on Amazon, but several look alike what's your source?

I brought my ball joint separator from a tool shop, but I think I saw the same tool at Sears. The photo was what I found on the net and looks exactly like my tool. I think OTC sells a similar ball joint separator. I learn from my dad to buy good quality tools if I wanted to work on cars
OTC ball joint separator similar to mine ball joint separator used on a BMW E46.
