Here are a couple more that you can get from Amazon.de: Bohrcraft. Uses the same grip as some other brands, I think made by Athlet Qualitätswerkzeuge. KWB. Included as part of their 2017 calendar. --Colin

I'd really like this torx driver set: https://www.agrisupply.com/king-tony-screwdriver-set-6-pc/p/91171/ ... but it's only sold in Agri Supply stores, and the only stores that seem to have stock are the following: Tifton, Georgia Statesboro, Georgia Valdosta, Georgia Would anyone local to...

It looks like the red-handled opener on the left is made by the Turkish company İZELTAŞ and is part number 3013 56 4130. It is included in the 6-piece set with part number 8776 00 8706. If anyone knows how to get this in North America, please let us know! I can't find any part number or set...

Very nice collection! What is the blue and black opener in the bottom row? (below Wera and to the right of CK?)

Bottle openers with screwdriver handles have been really popular with western toolmakers (Wera, Snap-on, Stanley, Matco, etc.) Does Vessel make one?

Any members in Australia? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/191964071719 And could I buy one of these from you? :) Apparently Supercheap doesn't ship internationally.

Has anyone heard any details about the Compac 2T-77 floor jack recall? I purchased one earlier this year through Automotive Service Equipment (asedeals.com). A couple weeks ago, I was contacted directly by the international sales manager for the Compac parent company, ESCO. He sent me a document...

Does anyone know where to get this Ace Hardware bottle opener? Apparently you can't order it online, and none of my local Ace stores have it. They can only order it by the 30-count case, and they're not willing to do that... --Colin

And another important question: do they also make a bottle opener with the same handle? :)
