Anyone using CK Tools Dextro screwdrivers?

I know that their electronics pliers are second to none, and their normal pliers look quite nice also, though I haven't used any. Just by looking at pictures, their screwdrivers look like they're right up there with the best. In the pictures at least, the molding looks absolutely top notch. The tips also look great.

They are available at All-Spec, and aren't incredibly expensive (compared to other brands in the same niche).

I'm seriously contemplating a set.

Wonder who makes their screwdrivers for them...they farm out their electronic plier manufacture, so I'm assuming someone makes their screwdrivers too.

Some of their screwdrivers are from Germany and some (the cheaper) are not iirc.
I think CK is just a brand and not a manufacturer ?

I dont know, but im not sure who they would farm out to. The tips look pretty unique in some of the pictures ive seen. According to All-spec, these are made in germany.

If they´re from germany they can´t be that bad
the tip in the first pic ? it´s a "Terminal tip" also available from Wiha etc.

I have a few CK tools and they are good value for money and if they are made in the east the quality control is decent, The CK tuff snips are the best scissors I have ever used even if they look like they cannot possibly work,they will cut practically anything.

I didn't necessarily mean the tip type, more the appearance and machining... it appears different than a Wiha or Wera tip of the same type, for instance. That's why I'm curious who would be the OEM in Germany.

Your right they do look pretty unique. When I say farm out, I don't necessarily mean to Asia. Their electronic pliers are made in Germany and they are tip top!
