Well you can never have enough screwdrivers can you. I have screwdrivers all over the house / garage and vehicles. We were looking around the factory shop at Spennymoor Co Durham one day to see what they had in and there was a tub of odd lose single screwdrivers probably from sets at a quid each! I had a good look through and managed to get a set of four pozi drive ones. I use this type of tip the most these days and they never come in wrong. I have some Stanley screwdrivers dating back nearly 35 years and they are still going strong. Yes the quality is not as good as the old days but what do you want for a quid. The tips last a long time and don't tend to round off easily and they dont round the screw heads either. The only down side if you have big hands the handles have slimmed right done over the years and feel quite small in your palm. Alot of people now a days would never even dream of using a screwdriver unless it had a battery attached to it but I am more old school when it come to smaller jobs around the home. Dont get me wrong I have a selection of cordless drills, impact drivers etc for larger jobs.
If you are ever passing through Spennymoor call in you might just hit lucky with a bargain, stock changes on a daily basis so it is very pot luck.
RRP around £4 to 6 each and I paid £1 each from the Dewalt / Black & Decker / Stanley Factory Shop at Spennymoor
