Disagrees Klein.

Not really small. Not made in USA or Klein changed their production. It doesn't even have a "Made in USA" label on the handle. The rubber is cheap, soft and very thick. deformations in plastic. Bad quality control. Check out my photos next to real small.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

First class quality

My father was an electrician and carried many small tools with him all his life. I still use his tongs today. The screwdriver is functionally perfect, well designed and finished. It replaces 4 other screwdrivers in the bag. It's long enough for most jobs, but for specialized applications you might need to pack a few more long-reach screwdrivers. To me, small means a quality tool.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • I will add later

My favorite screwdriver

Unfortunately, the Klein 5-in-1 screwdriver is becoming increasingly difficult to find as it's the perfect carry-along screwdriver for most jobs. It feels good in the hand and is the right size for most uses, while switching between attachments is quick and easy. I don't find the newer version with more tips nearly as useful because I rarely use these tips and it's more of a hassle to switch to the ones I want.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I have my doubts

A few bucks more for lifetime use

My dad had one of these that we kept in the kitchen drawer for anyone who needs a screwdriver. Fast forward 40 years and I needed him too. They are still the best of their kind and are great for the home. I also do quite a bit of electrical work and you will never need another screwdriver for most socket, switch and panel work. You can save a few bucks on other multidrivers, but this one will last you a lifetime.

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Having troubles

Disappointed - NOT Made in the USA

I bought this expecting to see a nice 'Made in USA' stamp on the handle. (Although the picture on the website clearly showed this) It kind of broke my heart. Assembly in the US is no longer the same. For some of us, it still means just as much. I would happily pay more for quality craftsmanship and the reassurance that someone is genuinely proud to have made this with skill and quality materials. He changes the meaning of small to another Chinese screwdriver. Now I must test what I buy from…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No machine
