rrich1 Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Nice set of drivers. I agree wera makes some great screwdrivers, but the handle shape disagrees with me; I'm sure it's great for a lot of people but just doesn't work for me. I did just pick up some insulated Felo drivers though and the handle feels great. To each his own I guess.I'd suggest trying a couple brands before getting a complete set.I agree with this. They are funky. I would buy a sample driver from different t companies like Wera, witte, Felo, and Wiha, and see what feels the best.

NicholasShetley Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 I'm thinking of getting this set. What do you guys think. I'm looking at the $31 set http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0001NQQCM/ref=s9_simh_gw_d0_g328_i2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=mobile-1&pf_rd_r=0ZK6B8AN52JC5K9ZK7CG&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=2068141862&pf_rd_i=mobile&th=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same series as mine. No hex bolsters or shafts from the looks of it. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMack37 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Here's a comparison pic, not shown is my PB Swiss all are PH2: The PB Swiss is very small, it's the same width of the Felo PH1. Nicholas, that is the Wera set I have, it's great but do note that the smallest slotted screwdriver does not have the laser tip. You may want to consider buying an additional screwdriver to fill the extra hole, I've been thinking of adding a PH3 with hex bolster. The 7 piece set adds a slotted driver.

ChrisK Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 I won a bid on a Wera ratcheting screwdriver for a great price a few months ago. I still haven't used the darn thing but all metal inside. I have to get some driver bots for it still 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicholasShetley Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 I just ordered the set I was looking at. They should be here on Wednesday. I have never needed to use a wrench in a screwdriver for more torque so I didn't get that option. If I need more torque I always have an impact driver.

BMack37 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Good choice Nicholas, think you will really like those. I do recommend having one set of screwdrivers with a hex bolster if you work regularly on machine screws, you're bound to find one over torqued or rusted in place and you need the breaking torque...Impact drivers don't always work in those applications. If you're not working with a lot of machine screws, you'll probably never need it. One thing I find weird about Wera is how they pronounce it in English. It should be pronounced "Vera" but they(Wera's official youtube channel) pronounce it like it like an English word. While Wiha is pronounced "Veehah." Knipex officially uses the German pronunciation also, which is "Kahni-pex." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do see where it would be nice to have though. I'm hoping that these screwdrivers fit much tighter and reduce can out than my craftsman screwdrivers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMack37 Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Is Amazon the best place to get these? Amazon isn't bad, Sears also has them but their pricing isn't consistent. I bought one of my sets from Sears for $30 now they're $45. KC Tool is really good also, you can normally find 10% off codes for them too.
