These are definitely the most unusual looking screwdrivers I have ever used. Still haven’t unboxed them. Hopefully try them out in the next couple days and report back.[External image (images.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied]

Insulated baby. I’ve got the green ones and they have an awesome tip that works well to prevent cam out. Great screwdriver set.
I realized I didn’t have any insulated screwdrivers and wanted to try some Wera’s out, so boom, two birds one stone. The etched tip is really what got me interested. If I like these I will probably replace my craftsman with the uninsulated set. I have seen some of the youtube videos showing how strong that tip was with the laser etching, after using them does it really work that well?

Maybe we might see a video on this suckers 🙂
Just got the XL box, and with it comes two insulated ones. The Laser etched tip is just awesome. And grip is very good. Even though I think I have to get used to the special design, to really appriciate it to the fullest, it really amazes me how the fingers just seems to know where to grip.
Anyways. I love em.
I almost got the XL box but I thought I would try out this set first. I’m wishing now I would have got the XL!Andrull wrote:

I am really thinking about getting the xxl box. What sizes and styles does it come with?
I like those screwdrivers, might have to pick them up one day
The Wera drivers are great. They were my favorites until the Proto Duratek drivers came out. Now my screwdrivers are just as Proto saturated as the rest of my drawers
Depends. There is (in my knowlege) two XXL boxes. One with: Pz1, Pz2, two VDE flat, one normal (green) medium sized flat one, one voltage tester (flat), two flat 5,5mm and 7mm yellow style (possible to use with hammer and wrench), TX15, TX20, TX25 and PH2.NicholasShetley wrote:

And another set thats missing the torx, but got two extra normal flat ones, and the PH1.
Wera are great. I have the set with steel cap for hammering paint out of screw heads etc. I also use there impaktor bits, I’ve probably put over 3000 screws in with the pz2 and not showing any sign of wear
Has anyone used the Wera lasertip and the Bosch ribbed tip bits? Interesting to hear a comparison between the two. I haven’t used the Wera and was fully expecting both of these to be marketing bs but damned if those Bosch bits aren’t my favorite because of the ribbed for her pleasure tips.
Wera are awesome screwdrivers. I’m ashamed to say I don’t own any myself but before I was self employed my employers always supplied all tools and I always used to order Wera. As far as I’m concerned there are none better. I really must buy myself a set as they are quite reasonably priced here in the UK.
BTW: Bosch Ribbed Tipped, lol sounds like a condom variety! lol. Ribbed for your extra pleasure!
I have the Wera Kraftform Kompakt VDE and I really like it. I own a lot of Bahco stuff, which are generally very good, but Wera screwdrivers and driver bits are the best.
