Precision Machined Phillips Screwdriver - Klein Tools 603-4, featuring Cushion Grip and 8-Inch size Review

I bought 20 of this product and when it arrived I found the description of the product was wrong, it said it was 8 inches long but it was actually 4 Inch , I didn't realize I hadn't searched the manufacturer's website for the product model 603-4 before purchasing and relied on the information on the Revain seller page and I was very disappointed as I urgently need something like this shouldn't happen.

I am the only champion since I was 16 years old. 50 years later, when Sears dies, the brand has been sold and is suspect. Big brands have been sold out for decades and products are getting cheaper and cheaper. They trade with a good reputation and supply disposable waste. I despise replacing and replacing, I try to buy once and it's done. I've experimented with alternative brands and have had good luck with Klein wire cutters and screwdrivers. It's probably my favorite brand now.

In retrospect this seems silly but I didn't really think about the quality of the screwdriver until I got this one. I needed a Phillips screwdriver that was longer than the one I had for a home improvement project. I read the reviews and wondered if I could see the difference with the special tip and padded handle. Verdict? It's day and night. I wish I had received it sooner. This greatly simplified and accelerated the tedious work.

I put about 4 coats of heat shrink tubing on one of my screwdrivers and found it was sufficient for low voltage work. Don't forget to apply some glue towards the end of the tip as well to keep the layers from slipping off. Speaking of small screwdrivers, why should people pay a good price for a quality screwdriver than hammer to the end? Mushrooms or, even worse, use them as crowbars? There are several manufacturers of the right tools. As a retired aircraft mechanic, I respected my tools.

I work a lot with screws and avoid nails whenever possible. Phillips screws are the most commonly used, so my #2 Phillips screwdriver has many uses. I bought this 4 inch small #2 screwdriver to replace my Stanley Jobmaster which I had for probably thirty years. I took a photo and posted it showing/comparing the two brands. Surprisingly, they look and feel almost exactly the same. The Stanley shaft is a bit thicker, but I hope the $9.50 Klein will hold up just as well and be worth the price…

Shaft is 1/16" longer than 4". The handle is slightly thicker than other screwdriver brands and measures approximately 1.25 inches in diameter. I also received a Wiha 40010 magnetizer and it works great with this screwdriver. I wasn't expecting much but it worked like a charm. BTW, after much searching for an answer, "profiled" simply means "precise cut"; more specifically a 4-point crosshead tip. This bit fits the head of the #2 screw EXACTLY without wobbling. Haven't tried it on cheap screws…

I'm a homeowner and DIY enthusiast and I kick myself for not investing that $9 sooner. This screwdriver is AMAZING and I enjoy using it every time which is a lot. :) The precision-machined tip is like a clutch here - seating a Phillips screw with this screwdriver is 100 times more precise and secure than the seating you get with most other screwdrivers, including those from highly respected brand names. . You'll feel the difference as soon as you insert a screwdriver into the screw, and the…
