CBP's answer: D. D: 8206.00.00

Heading 8206 covers tools of two or more of headings 8202 to 8205 put up in sets for retail sale. The screwdriver, adjustable wrench, pliers and handsaw come from different headings of 8202 to 8205 and are packaged for retail, so they are classified together as a set under 8206.00.00 (GRI 1), and D is right. Each tool alone, such as pliers in 8203.20.40 or wrenches in 8204.12, would apply only if they were imported separately.
