Review on πŸ”§ Klein Tools JTH6T30 T30 Torx Hex Key with Journeyman T-Handle, 6-Inch: Efficient Solution for T30 Torx Applications by Terrance Duncan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool for T27 fasteners.

I bought this tool primarily to work with Stihl chainsaws that have T27 bolts in their bodies, some of which are recessed or otherwise positioned so that they are difficult to reach or apply sufficient torque torque with standard L-shaped screwdrivers. The long shaft provides access to the recessed fasteners, and the plastic handle allows for a comfortable application of a small amount of torque. The tool feels solid, the grip is comfortable, and the ends of the bits fit snugly in the fasteners. I expect this seemingly professional tool to last a long time in the hands of a handyman. My sophistication about this instrument is philosophical. Since Klein Tools advertises that they make most of their tools in the United States, I was a bit disappointed to learn that this particular tool doesn't belong in this group. While I know relatively little about Slovenia, where this tool was made, and certainly don't dislike its citizens or companies, I would be a bit happy if they found a way to make this tool here. I used this to learn a little bit about Slovenia. As a result, I added a wonderful instrument to my collection and a little knowledge about an interesting country in my brain.

Pros
  • Power and Hand Tools
Cons
  • So far so good
