https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o2tg3qFpbc I think its a pretty interesting tool, but I would have to use it too see how well the concept works in reality. It does seem like everything has a 1/4″ hex end on it.
if only it was ratcheting …
I have a Dewalt handle, had it for years, that has a 1/4″ quick-release. The whole thing is rubber-coated metal, and has a strike cap on it so you can beat it with a hammer if necessary. Came with an adapter that takes reciprocating saw blades, which makes a very handy hand-held saw. Haven’t got a clue where I bought it, maybe Ace, I’ve had it for around 13 years or so.

Glad to see Klein keeping up with Milwaukee in the amount of new products!
Good God, why, why would they make this without ratcheting capabilities? They already make the ratcheting multi-driver. *shakes head*.
Another beautiful blunder by my favorite hand tool company. Uggh!
I understand that they needed to come out with a bit handle but this really does not even compete with other companies current offerings.
Here are just a few better bit holding handles:

The only reason I could only see getting the klien over these is having a hard on for the klien handle.
