i have that set. they're my household set. i like them. they're also drive though so, you can tap on em. the grip is outstanding & comfortable. I haven't exposed the handle to brake clean or anything like that.

An addiction to screwdrivers is an easy vice to pick up. WERA's are nice, the old Proto yellow handles have a good grip on me, and the new Tekton drivers keep calling to me.

Plus more screwdrivers everywhere I look! :eyecrazy:

I have a full set of Wera Phillips/slotted and a full set of Wiha torx drivers. I love them both but there is something about a wood Handel I can’t resist.

I just picked up a 6 piece set of Milwaukee screwdrivers from Home Depot today. I didn’t really need them since I already have a bunch of Craftsman and a few Gearwrench screwdrivers but they felt good in the hand.

AvE likes to sand them down to make them extra grippy when your hands have oil or grease on them. I believe these are his favorite screwdrivers too!

I had a chance to use them on a few projects around the house this weekend and I really like them. The handles are really ergonomic and have a good weight. The tips engage very tightly and hand fatigue is minimal when turning a screw out. I will keep these my "clean" drivers and leave my other Wiha and Wera drivers for auto work.

The grip on these is good. They take abuse very well. I work on locks and often have to hit the end of my #1 phillips to loosen screws and they have really held up.
Got my set from Amazon.

The set is $25 on amazon and $30 from KCTool.com where I bought mine in addition to some small items.

I picked up a 12 pc set of Tekton at Sam's Club for $19.91. I noticed the price drop, so I grabbed them up. I read some time ago that if you see an item at Sam's ending with $.91 then they going to discontinue the item. So you Sam's shoppers watch out for the $.91.

They are the same price on Amazon.

I went with the Felo wooden handles though. Almost too purdy to use for automotive work but no point in letting them sit around.
