Wiha in a Wera ??

[Moley]

Do the Wiha interchangeable VDE blades fit the Wera handles? The Wiha seem to be easier to get hold of than the Wera ones. I'm after the slim bits, the ones where the insulation is the same diameter as the tip, to go with my new set.

Wiha blades are 6mm.

Bugger! Oh well, good job I asked before I bought. I suppose I could buy a Wiha handle too.

plenty on ebay. i have to replace a lost wiha bit every month or so. only problem with the wiha is that the bits fall out when using. usually off a ladder or into a bottomless cavity.

Amazon often have Wera slim blades at good prices, although they can also be quite expensive at times.

i didn't know wera did slims. the wiha ones are about £6 odd on ebay.

Think they now produce slimline versions of most blades - some of the old versions seem to have been phased out..
