Considering this Felo screwdriver set

[Andy Griffith]

Howdy, home shop guy here. I'd like to get a couple of 6pc (or thereabouts) screwdriver sets, one for my service cart and one for my tool bag.

I have a set of the older black handle craftsman pro's which have provided good service. One thing I like about them is the type and size is printed on the top of the handle. This is handy as the screwdrivers in both the service cart and the tool bag are stored with the shaft buried, and having the type/size on the top of handle makes it easy to grab the right one the first time.

This Felo set claims to have the type/size on both the side and top of the handle. I was wondering if Felo is considered a quality tool? Are there other screwdriver sets with markings on the top of the handle I should consider?

Thanks

Those will be fantastic.

I can tell you the printing on the top wears off very quickly so do not buy into that to much. But I can also tell you they are great screwdrivers, I own 2 sets for around the house and in my truck.

I picked up a single, small flat head, as a beater screwdriver to keep in my pocket at work for anything from prying to just the other day I was using it to debur the edge of some stamped sheet metal part I had. I tell you what, considering what I've put this thing through so far, that fact that the tip still has sharp corners and isn't chewed up in the slightest, I'm really thinking about picking up the whole set myself.

Have this set and it's great. If you shop around you might be able to find the matching torx set included for free.

Hazet 802 set has markongs on the **** end as well, but you probably won't be able to get them that cheap.

If you can find a Torx set included for around that price, post it up here!!

I have that driver set, along with Wera Lasertips, C-man pros, some Wihas, and a set of PB Swiss. The Felos are my favorite by far. In fact, I ordered a set of Felo hard handles last night, because I like these screwdrivers so much.

I bought a set of the chrome-plated Felos, the handles/etc. were great but the chrome plating chipped off the tip almost immediately. Based on the reviews here, I'll be trying one of the micro finish sets.

Gang,

Don't overlook the old school wood handled Felo drivers. They are very good drivers and for some reason the markings hold up better on these old woodies.
