Review on πŸ”§ Craftsman 6-Piece Jewelers Screwdriver Set (Model 9-41106) by Tony Weber

Using the right tools makes all the difference

My dad always said if you want to do a job right use the best tools you can afford and they will work fine for you. Having owned it for over a month I have to say I'm impressed. Of course I've been buying Craftsman tools for years mainly because of their lifetime warranty, which to me means a quality product. My reason for buying was a reliable tool to loosen bolts from old fishing reels in order to rebuild them. Some other brands I've had were either too thick for screws or too long over the base. Also, they lost their shape and buckled, rendering them unusable. Typical jewelry tools have the right head size and hardness for strength, but the handles don't give you the torque you often need to loosen screws that have been tightened for over 50 or 60 years. This Craftsman's design is based on the standard design used in regular sizes and is reduced in size to provide the secure grip required for this type of work. I've used every driver in this set at least once and they all held their shape and did their job. I might even move on to something else to disassemble, clean and fix them just to use them more often.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • A dubious purchase for seniors
