I have 3 Snap On Phillips Head Screwdrivers that need replacement handles. One the old handle has completely fallen apart due to age and the other two were replaced with the new comfort grip which I do not like. Does any one have 3 of the black hard plastic screwdriver handles? TIA

They seem to be fetching a premium on Ebay.

Not sure why.:confused:

Good Luck finding affordable ones.

I'll sell you my 8 piece set plus a #3 & #4 phillips and a ratcheting screwdriver for $400. that seems on par for what some people are paying on ebay.

I would only pay 400 if you have carved your name in them really deep and then you scraped it off before you sold them to me and ruined them and they were orange. :lol_hitti

The closest affordable way would be Williams replacement handle.

Try a few of the JH Williams screwdrivers, search the last few threads, with detailed pictures and reviews. IMO, the hard handled Williams are the same as the Snap-on's. I keep picking up a Williams out of my toolbox thinking its a Snap-on. I really hope Williams continues to keep this series going. http://www.jhwilliamstoolgroup.com/cat-24-1-6/Screwdrivers.htm , you can order from http://www.all2ools.com for 40-50% off list price.

haha, heck for the price, I'd snag the 6 piece harbor freight black hard handle set and use some gasoline on the lettering, then a vice and some vice grips to put the snappy shanks in them.

Um, if these are ANYTHING like the ones my father bought (remember, 30 of a cheap tool, at less price, is better then one good tool is his motto), they melt in the sunlight. (he was working on the mower and the shafts started turning in the handles)

You can purchase one of the Williams screwdrivers SDP24. for $5.52 or a WILLIAMS/100P-5MD 5 Piece Mixed Screwdriver Set for $26. Why bother with the cheap stuff, I am really surprised how much the Snap-On hard handled stuff is going for on EBAY. Please post a review if you decide to purchase one of the Williams screwdrivers.

If I was hellbent on the Snap-on hard handles, I'd either cut my losses and buy the Williams, or I'd try to find replacement handles on eBay. Once in a blue moon, somebody will have handles for sale on eBay.
