Wiha 92190 Master Technicians Bench Top Set, 50 Piece, Black

I was talking myself into and out of this purchase for about a week. Finally I buckled down and decided that I'd rather spend $200 now buying some well-built tools that will last a lifetime, rather than $20 here and there when I need a tool, and buying crappy ones that won't last.I was not disappointed. In my order, I had these, the 7 pc set of ESD safe screwdrivers also from Wiha, and a Kabar knife with some accessories. Somehow, I got next-day shipping on the order. I ordered two nights ago (Monday 3-19-12) and received the order today (Wednesday 3-21-12). I guess Amazon takes care of you when you drop a fat wad of cash.Anyway, on to the tools. Since I wasn't able to find what was ACTUALLY included with the purchase, I will list it here for everyone else, so that you know exactly what you're getting when you press "Buy":edit: I'm an idiot, I found the product description that already displays this information. Lol.- 56 slot plastic bench stand/organizer (there's 49 screwdrivers and 1 prying tool included in this set)- 10 slotted/flathead screwdrivers, sizes: 4.0, 3.5, 3.0. 2.5, 2.0, 1.8, 1.5, 1.2, 1.0, 0.8- 10 nutdrivers, sizes: 5.5, 5.0, 4.5, 4.0, 3.5, 3.0, 2.5, 2.0, 1.8, 1.5- 8 torx drivers, sizes: T10, T9, T8, T7, T6, T5, T4, T3 (two more further down)- 8 hex STANDARD drivers, sizes: 1/8", 7/64", 3/32", 5/64", 1/16", .050", .035", .028"- 5 hex METRIC drivers, sizes: 3.0mm, 2.5mm, 2.0mm, 1.5mm, 1.3mm- 4 philips drivers, sizes: 1, 0, 00, 000- 2 torx ESD (electrostatic discharge) safe, sizes: T2, T1- 2 ballpoint drivers, sizes: 5/32", 9/64"- 1 chip lifterSo, you're really getting a 49 piece screwdriver set with a handy little hook tool (Stanley makes a 4 pc hook set which I highly recommend if you're looking for that), which is actually really convenient for me, because it left me with 7 open slots on the plastic display, which is pretty much what sold me on buying the 7 pc ESD philips/flathead drivers from Wiha.As others have mentioned, you can see the size and type of driver on the handles, so it makes organizing the tools in the display case very easy.If you do a lot of precision work in electronics or jeweling or anything else, then I recommend this set. I'm fairly certain that I won't have to buy any more precision drivers for the rest of my life. I really hate spending money ($200 on screwdrivers?!? !*@#&(*&!^$), but when you spend it on something that you know will be very useful to you, it will pay for itself over time.I work on electronics such as computers and Xbox 360's.

The price on these had me going back to whatever 'precision/jewelers' drivers I found at stores. The problem I experienced with other drivers was improperly formed Phillips heads and cheap metal. The heads of the cheap screwdrivers never seemed to fit the heads properly, the handles would spin around the shaft when loosening a tight screw, and the head would mangle itself and/or the screw. As a computer tech, I think it is unprofessional to return a computer with stripped screws.This Wiha product eliminates all of the negatives associated with other precision drivers. Handles are comfortable and easy to manipulate, heads grab screws correctly and are able to loosen the most stubborn screws without damage, and the large selection virtually garantees the correct bit is at hand.The price is the only serious drawback to this toolset. As long as you don't lose these, it is a sound lifetime investment.EDIT 9/16/2012- After a couple years, my review stands. After hundreds if not thousands of uses, there is no discernible wear on the driver tips. Some screws (mostly phillips) are shallow or not cut well (not pozi), and are difficult to remove. I'm typically able to press down hard on the driver and engage the head sufficiently. I do not see this as a fault of the driver, rather a fault of the fastener.The chip lifter has been an incredible help- I use it as a mini pry-bar/spudger/wedge. Very handy.The handles remain attached to the shaft to the limits of a hand-held grip. I've never used pliers on the handles (never needed to) but I have a pretty healthy grip and have never been disappointed. Some drivers will be used much more than others, but having the correct size available in the middle of a project is handy.The only way you will be sorry you spent the money is if you lose them.

Yes, this is a really nice set of tools. I've had them for about 5 weeks and been very impressed with the ones I've used: mainly the metric hex drivers. Their precision craftsmanship and hardness keeps them from stripping screws as I have experienced with inferior products.My big question is why do I need two duplicate hex drivers?? So I did get exactly what was specified including 5 metric and 10 Standard (inch) hex drivers however, a 1.3mm is identical to a 0.05" and they put in two of these; one with the metric set and one with the Standard. They are both clearly labeled "1,3 - 0.05". Plus they did the same with the "2.0mm - 5/64inch" hex driver. I would rather have had two more, unique, hex drivers than two duplicates. WIHA makes a 4.0mm and a couple more Standard sized they could have included instead of the two redundant ones.Instead of 50 it turns out to be 47 unique tools plus a chip puller. Hence the 4 instead of 5 stars. (I would have given 4.5/5 because they are very nice, but that is not an option.) That said, and now that you know what you're getting I do recommend this high quality tool set.
