Review on ToughBuilt - Technician 6-Pocket Pouch - Large | ClipTech Pouch Clips & Hub Included | 4 Taylor-Fit Screwdriver Loops (TB-CT-36-L6) by Bobby Inappropriate

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I really want to like it but.

so I bought quite a few heavy duty tool holders. I like the Cliptech idea and it will serve me well. However. As much as I love the idea of this tool bag, I don't like it for several reasons. That's why I don't use ordinary screwdrivers with a handle. Mine have a soft grip or they are a little bigger for better torque. Or I can carry around a small screwdriver and I usually carry pliers and 6 inch padlocks. Used to it. Screwdriver slots have no bottom, so a long screwdriver fits well. What's wrong with it is the strength and thickness. Definitely 5 stars, maybe 6 if that allows for it. So the bad part. Anything but a regular screwdriver (like the flathead and Phillips screwdrivers you get at the gas station in the kit) goes into the slots, and the base fits snugly against the bottom of the screwdriver. So yes, something bigger will do, but it will bounce and fall out. 2 thin pockets suitable for thin tools without additional padding around the handles. I used to have a 2 element Maglite that fitted well and was secure. But I switched to the Nebo Inspector and it fell right through the gap, another sky doesn't fit in, if I fit that in I can't get it out without a lot of effort. This tool bag is tough. the price is right but unfortunately it is not functional for me. And I still use it just because I really want to find a way to love it. I also have 2 other large Toughbuilt bags although they are larger. The grooves are so hard and feel smaller than your average cheap screwdriver. They also became non-functional for me. I can't return them. And I really don't want that. But I can't work with it because the tools just don't fit in these pockets. Turning a positive into a negative would be material. It's strong, durable, won't crack, it's definitely durable. it's just hard.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Some bugs
