Very hard to tell with out touching them, they seem close in design. do they have hollow ground tips, what about the materials used to make them? The witte has engraving on the shafts, this cold be a better attention to detail.
How about price? are they close in $$?

+2 with Monte. I have them, they are nice. They are my second set of felos, first set is for mechanic work, the woodhandles are for woodworking. Very nice drivers. I also have Wera and Wiha for reference.

I agree with Monte's recommendation. Notice the difference in the wood handle shape. I like those the best...

I've never seen or handled any of these, but my father has a couple of Felo's with plastic handles shaped like the ones Monte posted, and they're great, so I'd definitely say Felo. I'm a big fan of wood handles, I think it's a good choice either way!
