Short ones are often not short enough. This screwdriver is slightly shorter than the others I have, measuring 3 1/4 inches with the bit installed. The quality of this screwdriver is not that great. not as important as it would be with other instruments. I see the main quality problem in the metal bit mount at the end of the driver. It is made from a softer metal than I would normally expect in an instrument. Initially there were some rough spots on the inside that I had to work on before the bits would slip. The small ball and the spring are very firm. They hold the bits very well but sometimes it feels a bit heavy to slide a little. The handle is easy to grip and is the right shape and size. The beats themselves are decent, but not what I would class as high quality.
