I know what you mean. I've got some metal ones from Machine Mart. Excellent quality.
I got a cantilever type metal one from here and it's really good;

for spanners etc, when they're full they're quite heavy. Non-damaging rounded corners, and cheap. If you filled one of the cantilever ones with metal tools you wouldn't want to lift it. It depends what you're carrying. It's worth looking at the boxes in Halfords, to see what a reasonably well made toolbox weighs when empty.
Whenever I "have a look" at the tool boxes in Wickes or B&Q I seem to break a couple. If you can break the catch with your thumb, what's the point??!
