HF free screwdrivers,FTW!!

Not an option for guys like me who use them daily. I need something that fits the screws and will last. I don't have time to go to HF to get new free drivers when these break. For occasional use at home I'm sure they are fine. But for me I need better. The Klein drivers are good quality at a good price. Cheap enough to not piss you off if you loose one .

My recently bought (May/June 2016) long #2 Phillips Klein is awesome. I bought it at Home Depot. The tip is hard, a little harder than my Felos and maybe a little harder than my PBSwiss drivers. Definitely more of a positive engagement than both. I was really quite surprised! I only bought it because I couldn't find a long pattern #2 Phillips in any top brand.:dunno:

Anyway, I love the handle! I just was ready to hate the thing; always thought taking an acetate handle and just wrapping it with rubber was sorta cheesy but darn it, it's slightly better than PBSwiss' soft handle, for me anyway. The "Klein Screwdriver Whisperer" got to me, I guess.

BTW I wrote PBSwiss instead of PB Swiss because GJ seems to auto link the latter to wherever they are getting paid to advertise. Currently autolinking to Sears, of all places. Just noticed more autolinks appearing in my post. LAME LAME LAME. Jesus Christ GJ, don't go down that path. Only amateur sites do that @!%#!

Edit: autolinks are disappearing and reappearing. Wtf.

Just an update on the autolinking. I contacted Ryan, an admin, and he sez, "Ryan sez, "Figured it out. It's viglink bug. I'll fix it this week. Thanks and sorry!"

Hooray!
