adamoverdrive is correct...I've verified the calibration on a couple of Harbor Freight clicker torque wrenches for co-workers and they all checked good within their specified tolerance limits.
They're not for serious "wrenchers" who make their living using these, but I wouldn't hesitate to use them.
If you're so inclined, spend a couple extra bucks and purchase some Craftsman torque wrenches (not the Digital ones). Those are a good investment.

PS: No kidding guys...My department calibrates 300 various torque specification and Mfg torque wrenches on a 4-month calibration cycle (that's 1200 calibrations every year). I personally use Snap-Ons because I have them and because I'm a Professional and they've lasted me over 30 years sofar.
Occasional use of less expensive brands (Shade Tree Mechanic work) in my opinion is alright. Believe it or not, most clicker type are accurate to +4 and -6 of Reading whether they're made in China or somewhere else.
