IS PB SWISS SCREWDRIVERS BETTER THAN WERA?

This week Scott from Tool Central takes a look into the world of Screwdrivers. He looks at Swiss made PB Swiss & Czech made Wera Tools,
many people regard these two as the best screwdrivers available.

PB for me, great screwdrivers, been using them since the 83 or so.

Never found my wera that comfortable. The rubber inserts deteriate after some time. I reach for pb swiss girst but only have a few as cost. The felo ergonomic are excellent but the markings on the handle top wear off. Irazola have parrellel tips also . Truely they best design for slotted screws. If my wallet was big enuff it would be pb every time.

Thanks for the videos, definitely going to come and have a look, all my favourite brands!

Wiha screwdrivers are my go too but the few PB Swiss tools I own are on another level in terms of quality

Thanks for the video. I've found the PB Swiss screwdrivers and bits to be superior for gripping screws when compared with the Wera screwdrivers and bits. What I mean by that is that I can put a screw on the end of the screwdriver or bit (tip pointing up) and the PB Swiss will hold it if I turn it upside down whereas the Wera usually drops the screw. This may not happen with all Wera but it does with some of mine. I have some firsthand experience with the above. My only constructive comment on the PB Swiss is that they don't do a heavy duty version of Pozi-drive with the through handle blade and hexagonal bolster. Just a friendly heads-up that you need to fix your camera or lens as the video is washed out which is very distracting making it hard to watch.

Once I discovered PB Swiss, all my Wera stuff went to friends and family. You can’t beat the SwissGrip or tip fitment

Any Knipex pliers or screwdrivers to review?

[peterandersen]

Wera is ok, but i never realy got the feeling for them, allways grap one of the other ones.... but must say had them for 10+ years they are still around
The Old Bacho, the one with the green handle is somting I miss

I prefer my PB Swiss screwdrivers and nut drivers to any other brand.

Can you get Pb swiss in UK ..
any links ...

[sammiches]

I have zero doubt the PB Swiss are the best bits in existence. I know this because I cannot afford them.

[brendangriffin]

I have bought several wera tools some are good some not so much . I have tried more than once to get a hold of wera so they could make good with the bad ones & have not heard from them .

[pcfred]

For me the Wera is out because of the overmolding. Sometimes I get pretty grimy, messy and sloppy working. So I need tools I can wipe down. Not ones that are going to trap dirt and fluids. I never understood any of those soft grip tools. That crap would look like the dog's breakfast if I used them.

Wera is great, but PB Swiss is greater

[Jtx_Tools]

Idk how I feel about Pb Swiss they Have that Nice tip design on the Flat head/ Slotted Screwdrivers. for everything else the handle design and Construction of the screwdriver seems run of the mill Idk how I could justify spending almost 3 times the cost of the competition for a set, for these…

Great short video, but an important note: Wera is not a Czech manufacturer, but a German manufacturer!

Greetings from Germany!
