Review on πŸ”§ Park Tool AWS-1 3-Way Hex Wrench: Versatile Tool for 4mm, 5mm, and 6mm Bolts by Durward Carlson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Always hits something when twisted

I really don't understand why everyone likes these things. clearer marking of the size of each tool. Yes, you usually look upside down and you can tell, but they put crappy little stickers to mark the hex I got and very small torx stamps you can barely see. Pak probably paid the Chinese 50 cents each and sold them for $13. still sturdy and functional, but doesn't feel too cheap, uncomfortable to slip in your pocket or tote bag, or keep anywhere other than on your tool wall. is where I bump the 2 unused ends of the tool against another part of my bike. I have to keep doing 1/8th of a turn, then pull the head out and back, or just grab another tool. So many times that I stopped taking this instrument out of frustration. It looks like I'm in the minority here. I have a set of hexes for a park with 10 longer hexes and now these triangular pieces just sit in the shed as a backup in case I need one for a stud they are working on.

Pros
  • Top marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
