Have shopped around, both on the WWW. and on my travels, everywhere you go seperates or singles ain't cheap, compared with sets! even sets ain't cheap, but are reasonably priced.

Single wera hard handles with do About five to seven euros here.

With the current pound exchange rate that's about the same. A set will do twenty euro at tbs to thirty five euro in the local hardware strore. But those are the laser tip soft handles.

Insulated and hard handle are more. Heck I paid 4,99 for the little wera electrical tester a few pages back.

That said every wera I own is labeled as such.

Yeah I've noticed a couple of pages back, there are some sister companies of Wera, and they used to do hard handle screwdrivers!

 

[Milwookie]

That looks like a knock-off to me. Is it labeled with a COO?

No, it just has printed on the handle PH2x250mm and stamped chrome vanadium down the round shank, it's got a magnetic tip and so far it hasn't cammed out of any phillips screw I've used it on! So I'm not sure if it is NOS hard handle Wera!

 

[Dirty Diesels]

Well to answer, my own question, regarding that screwdriver, it turns out to be a Draper expert engineers screwdriver!

I know I'm just wondering if Draper brought some patent rights off of Wera to use the same design handles.

 

[dutchgray]

Draper has had its name put on a lot of others products over the years and the expert range is usually ok.

Yeah, Draper are ok, have had a few bits of theirs over the years and they have lasted well. I've just been browsing their website, they even supply Elora tools now.

 

[superautobacs]

That Draper is sourced from China. I've seen that exact copy several years ago in orange colour, sold at Garret Wade.

Funnily enough, I found whilst browsing, the orange handled version, it had Draper expert printed on it, at 1 time most of drapers stuff was stamped japan, so times have changed.

Not a fan of the cyclops ratchets, used them a few months ago.
But I do have a couple the the screwdriver with bits set. Both designs, with the long bits and the other with the short bits. Also have the a couple sets of the electric screwdrivers.

Sorry, that video looks like it was made by a 10 year old. I'd rather see how they actually make stuff rather than a heavy metal rock video.

 

[Tonyuk]

The new wera ratchets seem very nice. All the screwdrivers and pits i've had off them have been excellent.
