I don't know about the set mentioned above but I have the ratcheting set and also the mini pick set and they are great so far.

I have a set at work and they get the job done but I was not overly impressed with them. I thought for the price the quality would have been higher. I have a lot of Klein screwdrivers and I like them much better. That's my opinion since I know a lot of guys thinks the Klein quality is dropping.

I have a set, they are OK.

I hate the handles though. I reach for my snapon screwdrivers every time.

Great drivers, for a budget, no question.
Sold my SO pick set, because those handles felt better in my hand, personally.
Can't do wrong by them, if your hands like them.


Napa Carlyle brand drivers are the same. And matco, but better metal.
Apex/Danaher style drivers.
Check were the deals are.

This is what I thought about them. Used them, never bought a set myself. IF you want a soft handle set these are probably not soft enough to fit the bill. If you don't care about soft handles, I would spend my money on Williams over these.

There are many good screwdrivers that can be had cheap, I don't see the value in sets that big like a few posts above unless you are going to split it up and need some here, some there, etc. It does everything poorly really. I would spend the money on good precision drivers. There are 2 Torx drivers. It has the right standard phillips/slotted drivers, but there's just too much extra to make it a value to me.



Honestly if you are going to pay this money you can get better drivers.

I have that six piece set and I like them. Personally I think they grip pretty well in my hand, no real problem with them at all.

Thanks for the input is the willams set a big step up in quality compared to the gearwrench

 

[cheechi]

I think it is.

I have Williams and Gearwrench. Both are nice. Williams is nicer than Gearwrench.
