+1 on the Borka. Here is a link to a test at 6mm BR:

I readily and proudly admit to being a "tool junky" and having had a number of passions/hobbies/addictions over the years. These have changed as have the tools acquired for each one. One thing has never changed.....I NEVER get rid of any tool. So I have the Snap-On inch pound torque wrench from my 2 stroke motorcycle racing days, the aforementioned Borka (which I REALLY like) and the nice T Handle Torque wrench from Brownells (an xmas gift from a customer). bwaites is pretty much on the money about torque wrench accuracy. I am very fortunate in that I have access to torque wrench testing/certification testers that use strain gauge technology. I was very skeptical of the claims made for the Borka and I as well as the techs in the standards dept that I mentioned were amazed at the accuracy and repeat-ability of this thing. It isn't cheap but my father, a master carpenter, taught me that you can buy and replace cheap tools over and ever or buy quality once. I have lost track of the broken off screws I have removed or stripped threads I have repaired for customers and friends over the years. Torque limiting tools are your friend!!!!!
