Review on Irwin Screwdriver Set, 4-Piece (Model 1948799) by Isaiah Bower

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Another quality tool from Irwin

These are very good quality tools that feel good in your hand. The handle is nicely shaped and has a nice texture that prevents slipping and helps when trying to tighten something hard without feeling stuck. I have several other Irwin tools and they all worked fine and got the job done. The larger slotted screwdriver has a hex socket where the shank exits the handle. I could see this being useful in a really high torque situation where you can use a wrench to get more leverage to turn the blade. It's odd to me that they only did this on one of the four instruments in this set. If there's one thing I don't like about them, it's the head of the larger flathead screwdriver. It curves quite a bit before narrowing down to your chosen tip size. It can actually help in some way with torque or power, but it also means that even if the blade is the right size, it may not fit in those hard-to-reach places. For almost any application they will work great.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Some issues
