    Tools from the old world

    Are you sure the PB Swiss Insider 3 falls under the 3 year warranty? As far as the text reads, only torque tools and sterilized tools fall under that category. Everything else should be the Unlimited Guarantee. Taken from the pbtools.us (A U.S. Distributor) website...

    Ratcheting Screwdriver Advice

    This is pretty much the case. I initially bought some ESD precision screwdrivers when I first started this job and noticed that everyone was using magnetic tipped screwdrivers. So I'm not too worried about damaging anything with this feature.

    Ratcheting Screwdriver Advice

    I do know about the interchangeable shanks offered by PB Swiss, it's just that I want the most portable option along with the most functionality (ratcheting isn't an option with the interchangeable shanks without being overly clunky). I would love to do this! I was hoping to see what the 100th...

    Ratcheting Screwdriver Advice

    I'm curious as to how many people who are recommending Snap-On have tried PB Swiss? Right now I'm seeing if I can find a 95th anniversary hard handle ratchet from a tool truck, but if I can't I'm down to the PB Swiss Insider 3 vs Snap-On 5 Point Soft Handle. Which both run about the same cost...

    Ratcheting Screwdriver Advice

    I have another question about the Snap-On warranty policy, if you buy secondhand like eBay as a lot of people do, is it still serviceable by Snap-On? Or do most people just fix it themselves with replacement parts? The reason I ask is because I've seen some threads on here mentioning the 95th...

I'm tempted because Snap-On is domestic with so much love, but I'll probably stick to PB Swiss bits because...

    Ratcheting Screwdriver Advice

    Hmm, I've been seeing a lot of love for Snap-On on these forums. I know that PB Swiss only has like two distributors in the U.S. so I'm somewhat concerned with the warranty if anything happens. Snap-On seems to have a pretty good warranty/repair track record from what I've seen in posts. I was...

    Ratcheting Screwdriver Advice

    Lol, thanks guys. I really haven't used too many other ratcheting screwdrivers. My wife bought a bit set from B&D and it sucked. Barely used it and the bit holder mechanism broke so it's useless now. I didn't realize that the Insider was already the top tier so I guess I'm screwed since I'll...

    Ratcheting Screwdriver Advice

    Hello all, This is my first posting on this forum and I am in need of some advice from seasoned tool users! Here's some background on myself: I work in IT and for the most part, I only need a Phillips and slotted head screwdriver (Most commonly PH2 but I do use PH1 & PH0 semi frequently). My...
