As a German, I also agree that we make the best tools... All of these are great but I personally think that Wiha and Wera are, at least for insulated screwdrives, the best money can buy anywhere.

One thing to consider is, that the Wera Kraftform handles will deteriorate when getting in contact with oils. That is a big no for me. After some time the molded thermoplastics (green, yellow, ..) will start to become sticky and slimy and there is not much you can do to save it. The laser etched tips are nice and grippy, but the lack of oil resistance is such a big let down. I'm on team Wiha btw.

Switched from Klein to Wera. Haven’t looked back.

I use the stainless steel Wera almost exclusively. Have their chisel drivers too. But I live someplace with high humidity and lots of rain. And these guys are tough. Really tough.

Ergonomics and head strength/fit are excellent. Price is very reasonable. People I work with tell me I should be using Klein, and then they get hold of one of my Weras, and they shut up.

Got a friend who’s been in the trade for well over a decade that uses Filo and Wiha. Both are solid choices.

If my Wera drivers ever fail, I may try out PB Swiss. Because I like caviar and mineral water.

Wera was designed after one of their engineers squeezed his child's Play-Doh and it formed that shape. That's why it's called Kraft-Form

The 5 piece Wiha set sold at Lowe's is the best affordable attainable screwdriver set for us in the US.

Good video. Personally, for slotted, I like PB Swiss. The unique design of the tip seems to fit the best in slotted screws, especially old slotted screws. The VDE I don’t like the round handles as much, but I do like the, multicraft, and if you like softer handles, the Swiss grip and rainbow. Classic are smooth and small handles which fit in bags nicely. The impact cap size 4 slotted I use a ton. They are spendy, but not obscene if you shop around. Maybe order a PH2 or slotted size 4 (1/4in) to try. They seem to be a love or hate thing.

As you say, all the ones you showed are very good drivers, can’t go wrong and it’s mainly down to what handles you prefer.

I notice all the ones you showed are not the slim tip style VDE. Slim tips fit in some breakers or other recessed screws where the others do not. The newer kleins VDE as well as never versions of some that you show are slim VDE.

One issue I have with the ones you showed is that slotted are metric sizes. You end up with a 5.5 or a 6.5mm rather than a true 1/4 inch (and why the Wera chisel driver goes from 5.5mm to 7.0mm I will never know). Same issue with 3/16th inch. Some Felo rebrands are imperial sized. PB do seem to be spot on with their number sizes. Also, I like the Wera and Felo because they are light. The Wiha and Witte and big and Wiha seems heavier. Snap-on and the old handle style williams are also excellent screwdrivers.

I just got my first wera screwdriver set over the weekend. I'm going to be smashing my flat blade into all sorts of metal & duct work 24/7, the chissel style was clutch. Also the chuck on the base for use with a wrench is so cool. Can't wait to break them in.

I highly suggest you look at PB Swiss. They are by far my favourite go to screwdriver. Try the Swiss grip range, a great tactile feel on the hand. Every screwdriver has a laser etched serial number as they can pin point the batch of steel used during the manufacture process. The tips are super strong and accurate. Check them out. Wiha comes 2nd. I find the Felo tips are too soft especially my PH2. Great video! 👍

Wera is the toughest screwdriver I've ever owned, wiha is really good too. However a screwdriver that shocked me more than anything is westward brand from grainger!!! I'm a craftsman at a prison and I've had the same flathead, Phillips, and bit driver for over 8 years. They're tougher than a pine knot. So much so, I bought a set for the house and love them!!!

[clambert]

All of my nuts drivers (about 12 in different lengths and sizes) are Klein. The handles are amazing and the magnets are too. All my normal and insulated drivers are wera. Can't really go wrong with either. The laser tips on the Phillips/slotted do grip better for sure on the wera.

[PL-ocvn]

could you try out/review the pb swiss swissgrip screwdrivers sometime? really curious what you think about them

[WilliamBrown-bgvm]

I keep the wera in my bag and just got the Impact screwdriver the other day....
It's pretty good, I like the weight

[policarpiosantos]

My wera is 5 years old now & still doing well for my electrical bits

[aaaaa]

I only recognize one brand and that Wiha because that’s what I use. I like the fact its made in Germany and they can take a beating. I wish you would have said where they were all made. Thanks for sharing

[dauunsuc]

What about PB Swiss? Have you tried any of them?

[nachoisme]

Vessel or Anex ball grip for me. I don’t use insulated though, just have an insulated bit driver and switch out as needed

[andrewscott]

If you are going to get the hazet get the hazet 810spc/21 jumbox it's a 21pc that includes the set you linked plus a striking cap set and torx and mini torx all for about $100

[Pavleone]

I like to see that you actually use these screwdrivers, not like other Youtubers who are fake Electricians

[helicap]

Great review! Short, solid, informative. Very helpful! Thanks a lot.

My only complaint with Felo is that the markings on the back get rubbed off almost instantly. None of my most commonly used Felo screwdrivers keep the markings for more than a week.
