And it’s cute. Just 4-3/8" long with a pocket clip, it looks like a pen but it has (8) driver bits stored in the barrel. The 5/32” hex bits include slotted 2mm, 3mm, Phillips #1 and #2, and T5, T6, T7 and T8. We’ll pick one in red, black or blue, because who cares?

You need this. Anybody who's ever made a third trip to the hardware store on the same day needs this. The (100) -- count 'em, (100) -- chrome vanadium driver and bit attachments include slotted, Phillips, square (Robertson) head, torx, hex and 12-point bits, plus security Phillips, torx and hex, and (4) different driver adapters (one of which, a super-cute cup-hook driver, has us oddly excited). They're all in a flip-top plastic case. How come it's surplus? If you turn it upside down and shake it, some of the bits fall out of their little size-marked slots. So don't do that. Or stick a thin sheet of foam inside it and all will be well.

Is that a set of socket drivers in your pocket or did you just forget your toolbox? Imagine a set of (7) drivers mounted together and folding to a compact 4-3/8” x 2-1/8” x 1”. You pick the metric drivers at 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, 11mm and 12mm; or the SAE set at 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 11/32, 3/8", 7/16" and 1/2".

This handy set is pretty much the answer to your socketing needs. The (40) pieces include a 3/8” reversible ratcheting handle; a 6” driver handle; (14) 1/4” metric sockets from 4mm to 13mm; (14) SAE 1/4” sockets from 5/32” to 9/16”, a 3/8" to 1/4" adapter, 1/4" SAE sockets at 1/4”, 5/16" and 3/8", a 21mm spark-plug socket, a 3” extension, 3/8" sockets at 15mm and 16mm, a color sleeve, and a case.

Long nose, like Cyrano. Unlike Cyrano, these pliers measure 6" long in nickel-plated steel with mostly serrated jaws and a cutting edge near the pivot, where it ought to be. Handles are dipped in rubber to help prevent electrocution.

We like these small pliers and cutters - they're a higher quality than most of the Chinese import tools we're offered. They are drop-forged, high-carbon steel with double-leaf springs, lap joints and rubberized foam handles. There is a trim 6" needle nose, and a 4-1/2" mini-round diagonal cutter. For precision work and hobbies, and especially nice for anyone with small hands.

This 44-piece, precision ratcheting driver set has mini- bits that are perfect for working inside all the things you're not supposed to be inside of. You get a 4" ratchet driver, a nearly 4" extension, and boo-coo bits from teensy to just small in flatheads, Philips, pozis, hex and torx, all in chromium-vanadium steel and all in a nice carrying case. Bits are in (7) circular holders (like speed-loaders) holding (6) each, which will also fit inside the driver handle.

For those can't-reach screws that you don't want anyone else to loosen. This 10-piece set of star security bits are 6" long and you get sizes T6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 40 with 1/4" hex shafts to fit your standard electric drill.

Dead-center in the universe of tools you can’t have too many of, this 7-1/2" driver has (2) reversible heads, one with Phillips #1 and 3/16” flat, and the other with Phillips #2 and 1/4” flat, in chrome vanadium. Handle is 4-1/2” long and rubber-coated. Keep it in the kitchen junk drawer, where you can always find it.
