This precision screwdriver set comes with 16 tips; Great for multiple applications in jewelry and watch repair, computer repair, and model assembly. This set includes the following double-ended blades: Phillips #0 + #000, Phillips #0000 + Slotted 3/64 in. Slotted 1/8 + 5/64 in. Hex 0.05 + 1/16 in. and 5/64 + 3/32 in. Torx T5 + T8 and T6 + T10, and Square Recess #0 + #1. All eight blades store in a carrier inside the handle; a magnet in the handle allows its use with any power shank bit (not included).

The jeweler's handle can be used by itself in close quarters.

Sometimes all you need is a specific tool.

This is a very useful little screwdriver. There are a number of tiny specialty screwdrivers that can be stored in the handle. We've had one of these for years, but over time some of the tiny screwdrivers have been lost or taken to other jobs. We were happy to see it's still available. It was delivered quickly.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Clarity

Same problem as others - the bit holder is not up to standard and needs to be reworked!

I already had one of these screwdrivers and wanted another when I ordered it from Revain.

Lately I've found a number of other reviews that also mentioned the weakness of the bit holder. Hopefully General Tools will see these reviews and either change the bit holder's polymer compound or switch to a metal bit…

Cheap craftsmanship, spend a little more to get better quality.

I ordered this tool kit on December 24 with delivery in two days. Now I understand it was holiday season and when told I would receive it on December 30th I agreed. So it arrived today, January 3rd.

The defect is clearly visible. lessons learned; 1) If you need accuracy, please make sure you can check the…
