PB Swiss Swissgrip Handle Size

[HalfFlip]

Im looking to pickup some PB Swiss Swissgrip philips and slotted screwdrivers.

For those of you that own or have used these, how to the handles feel in comparison to wera kraftform? I have a kraftform bitdriver and my hand finds the grip comfortable, but just slightly too small.

So will I find the swissgrips larger or smaller than the kraftforms? thanks!

Depends on the size but mine are mostly smaller. They are like the small diameter part of the Kraftforms not the large diameter part.

Don't have any Wera Kraftform drivers to compare. The diameter of my PB Swiss PB 8190 Phillips #2 x 100 mm is 1.16" and my PB Swiss PB 8190 Phillips #1 x 80 mm is 0.95". I sure like the feel of the Santoprene material.

thanks for the feedback guys.

I went ahead and ordered a phillips #2 and #3 as well as a posidriv #2 and posidriv bits to make up for my lack of posidriv anything. I ordered them from toollady.com.

Cant wait to try them out!

PB Swiss are great, pretty much my first choice. I have the Wera in my emergency tool set that goes in the cars for long trips, so not used much.

You don't need to travel to Switzerland to get PB Swiss Tools. Toollady.com and PBTools.us can help you. Unfortunately it seems many products are backordered and it can take 4-6 weeks for delivery.

Truer words were never spoken. Two years ago I replaced my mixed, mongrel screwdrivers with a complete set of PBSwiss and sure love them...just great screwdrivers. However, it was a real ordeal. I ordered from Count On Tools and it seemed like 40% of the items were "back-ordered". I don't get the problem...dozens of planes land everyday from Switzerland..why is it so dang difficult to get screwdrivers? Rolex seems to be in plentiful supply throughout the USA. Having said that, in my opinion, PBSwiss are worth waiting through a back order situation.
