In green! Made in china. Looked like good quality. Hex bolsters. The pre cut and labeled foam is super nice. The handles are shaped close to witte’s. Which are very comfortable. I did not pick them up. [External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied]

Pretty decent set minus the made in China thing. Interesting color choice considering you’d think they’d want to flaunt their new brighter blue.

Good points…but the blue it’s hard to see unlike the green.  You may also want to check out Felo 6 Pc Sl/PH Screwdriver Set. Unlike things made in China they have top quality.   http://www.slingshottools.com/hand-tools/screwdrivers/felo-6-pc-sl-ph-screwdriver-set.html

 

Hope all is well!

 Like @JimboS1ice I am spoiled by the german screwdrivers. I still need to pick up a set of felos.

Acme had a kit in a plastic case for 20 bucks worth a look they weren’t hex bolstered

I think whatever I get next will be a torx set. I don’t need another regular screwdriver set.

Same here, I have the security Wera driver kit in a pouch so I’ve had a taste of having hex and torx screwdrivers with appropriate size shafts(instead of 1″ bits)…it’s pretty damn nice.

They look nice how much we’re they I might pick up a set.

Why would you need High vis screw drivers?

For when you realize the screwdrivers are soft Chinese metal so you use them as ground steaks instead

Lol perfect typo!!!

Nice to have the foam inserts

Now in Kobalt blue, I wouldn’t buy at this price, I’d think it would at least hit $20 like the high-visibility green set…hopefully $15
