I will second Monogram on this one. Beam style torque wrenches do NOT need to be calibrated. So long as the pointer is at zero when it's not loaded it's good. The Craftsman ones are pretty nice, but any beam style wrench should be just as good. I will say, however, that clicker style torque wrenches are very helpful when you're at an angle where you can't read the vernier on a beam style wrench.
