BAHCO 6 Piece VDE Interchangeable Ratchet Screwdriver Set

[chcnorris29]

Hello

Looking at new set of drivers and have used the Bahco drivers and they are the best i have used before but lost most, would have them again.
Just seen the BAHCO 6 Piece VDE Pozi & Slot Interchangeable Ratchet Screwdriver Set online.

Like the idea of them but with the price they are i would like some feedback from people who use them first.

Anyone used them or know if they are any good?

All advice appreciated.

Thanks

Get a traditional set of drivers mate, I had a similar Irazola set and it was a pita swapping blades all the time. Much easier to reach into the bag and pick one up

As Trev says, go for separate drivers, if you lose or break one, you can replace it instead of having to buy a complete set again.

Thanks both for the advise.

Will get a normal set then.
Still thinking of going with the bahcos like this (linked as there are a few bahco types i think?) unless you can suggest some better ones?
Have used wera (one bent and replacement broke in a short space of time), fatmax i like but pref the feel of bahco.

Thanks

Wiha are great drivers

be nice if they did an adjustable torque handle to fit the same shafts.

if you bent some wera drivers you were using the wrong sized driver. personally I like facom or wiha slim drivers

Have been using the Wera Kraftform set for over year now and i would buy another set. Very happy with them

Don't know what happened with one of my wera drivers. 5mm driver used only for terminals and machine pins bent almost like a U shape.

Apart from the blade retention mechanism which sucks, blades always falling out.

They are great for me as I'm doing basic maintenance at the moment and they are handy as I've got all me screwdrivers in a pouch together. Saves me having to carry screwdrivers individualy. Depends what sort of work you are doing

Yeah wera for me personally haven't tried the wiha yet... Although gettin tools I used in the uk is a pain as I have to wait for them to be shipped here..thinking about trying out channellock set of snips and pliers.. Seem to be popular here.. Made in the US aswell so must be reasonably good

I don't use the interchangeable blades mate, too much of a chew on.
