Screwdriver set

Can anyone recommend a good screwdriver set that comes in a box?

I have always used a Stanley set for the past 10 years, which I have replaced several times.


I like the solid case that keeps all of the screwdrivers together, but the heads on the Philips screwdrivers just don't seem to last. Today two splines sheared off the main Philips size head.

Can anyone recommend something similar in design but better quality?

I've got a laser set of engineers screwdrivers that have the metal nut on the end for giving them some with a spanner. They seem to put up with some torture, For the better stuff I use a decent handle with a hex socket and buy the bits to fit what I need...... star drive, Allen heads etc etc.

CK make good screwdrivers but the better models cost some.

I bought this set a few months ago. Dont use them much but look nice :ROFLMAO:


It is missing/lacking a stubby PZ and PH though :X3:

none last forever using bits and a ratchet are good for some tasks but not great for others.

I’m guess only one or 2 drivers need replacement why not replace just them

They never seem to last, you'd think by now manufacturers would have accepted everyone uses them as chisels and punches and would make them suitable for the job


Hands down this is my best screw driver😂

Teng tools.

This set did look nice with the foam inserts....but not sure I can really justify that. It contains both PH and PZ - I don't really see the need for both, and it also misses out PH3 or PZ3 and is rather overkill for my needs I would think.

The Halfords set @SilliamWhale mentions looks reasonable though again missing PZ3. Tempted to get a trade card and pick one up though.

The KS Tools set mentioned by @shumungus looks like it might fit the bill well.I don't need both PH and PZ, but it has all sizes and a few extras....and a very reasonable price too.

It's a pity Milwaukee, Wera, Knipex, Bahco etc. don't do a simple set of 10 slotted and PZ covering all 4 main sizes and a stubby, and in a sturdy box that won't fall to pieces in minutes. The box seems to let most tools down today, despite being a fairly cheap part of the item to produce.
