Very boxy shape, can put a lot of torque on it by hand.

I originally got a Bahco which is very small diameter and round, so I returned it:

No drive hole on the newer ones:

Got my 3/8" spinner handle in today. Seems like pretty good quality, fit and finish are very nice and it is pretty hefty. Not marked with the country of origin but looking online, Teng Tools are supposedly designed in Sweden and manufactured in Taiwan.

Also pictured is a 1/4" spinner handle from Cougar that came in a 1/4" ratchet/socket set. Cougar is not very well known but is the budget brand under the Wright Tools family (but probably outsourced to another manufacturer). I believe some or most of their line is made overseas but this set is marked USA.

There's Proto and Snap on.

Koken in wobble is nice, but no female end on the handle :(

My most used one though is a grey pneumatic impacting 1/4 wobble.

will note I have one Proto that seems to have some pretty sharp edges from the molding.

Shoot! A wobble drive handle. Why didn't I think of that? :cool:

The Craftsman has always been my favorite because of the ruffles potato chip ridges on the handle. I can spin that handle across my finger tips rather quickly. The square handle SK would be worthless to me. No offense. I wish Craftsman made a larger handle in 3/8 drive, but they never did.

Tekton just released this one from their German screwdriver line but, I really prefer a 1/4 female square drive at the top of my spinner handles :dunno:

1/4 Inch Drive x 6.7 Inch Spinner Handle (2.5 Inch Shank) | TEKTON

The front of the handle is round for quick spinning and the middle transitions to a tri-lobe shape that provides a secure grip for high-torque driving. SHW03125.

Maybe it's a previously available design and it's felt to complement the aluminum-bodied version.

At least we know they didn't allow use of a second to be used in the through-hole. 😂

Does that have a push button to extend it or ratchet ?
Never seen them but I want one 😍

Don never replied, so I'll comment as I own the Williams.
The knurled handle has two positions: fixed or pull it up to free spin. The Williams sliding T was intended to be used with it and it has a reduced diameter body to match. Other brand T's are often to big to fit.
Its a pretty neat design.
