I realised today that cheese cannot make a quality screwdriver, so I've been on the hunt for something better.

I've gotten a bit obsessed with Japanese tools, after buying this today: https://sydneytools.com.au/product/vessel-9006pb-6pce-megado…

And then I came home and found this deal, that was posted in Dec for a higher price: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/939836

You can add a second item, and get 13% off:

better go to sleep now before I go broke!!!

    What exactly is the woody penetrating?

    • 14
    • Domingo on 03/06/2026 - 21:34

      Lol - but in all seriousness I think it means it's a full tang construction, so the metal "penetrates" the whole way through the handle to a flat bit on the bottom of the handle which you can hammer without destroying the handle.

      • 16
      • VerticallyIntegrated on 03/06/2026 - 22:48

        So you penetrate the tang?

          No. Don't pry or twist things with a chisel, you'll risk damaging the cutting edge.

        I bought the low-torque high-speed model. Works great for long machine screws. Break it by hand then run the motor at high speed.

          I bought the multi speed one. I also prefer it over my drill driver/impact driver. More versatile than the the fancy micro driver i bought.

          I also have full (manual) Wiha set for more fragile things.

          • 0
          • eug on 03/06/2026 - 23:59

            @Schrodinger: FWIW the multi-speed one only goes up to 400rpm while the actual high-speed one goes up to 1200rpm, both no-load.

              @eug: Do you know the specs on the gold one, I bought that one when I saw it on special on OzB but never understood if it's high torque or high speed or whatever. I figure it's a balanced one?

              • 0
              • eug on 04/06/2026 - 11:52

                @bleeder: According to the listing it's:

                Low: 280 rpm/min/1.2 Nm;
                Medium: 340 rpm/min/1.6 Nm;
                High: 400 rpm/min/2.0 Nm;
                Maximum endurance when hand cranking: 12 Nm

                It's the same as the 3-stage one linked above.

            @Schrodinger: I have the gold one, don't even know what type it is, only one speed but it seems perfect. Only need to manually do the last bit to get it tight (or the start to loosen), you want to do the last bit of tightening yourself anyway. Used to use a drill and it's way more clumsy to handle, hard to use in tight spots, and I've overtightened Ikea stuff where it's pulled the screw through the chipboard lol.

          will the motor break if you use it to manually torque it? it says in the description it will lead to failure

          • eug on 04/06/2026 - 10:18

            @viper8548: The gears can get damaged, but it's not too different to the low-speed ones. The high-speed one has a max manual tightening torque of 10Nm, the low-speed 12Nm.

          • bleeder on 04/06/2026 - 11:15

            @viper8548: wtf, I'm still gonna do it though, what am I gonna do, switch to another screwdriver for the last bit of tightening? Ruins the point of having something for convenience.

            • Baa on 04/06/2026 - 12:33

              @bleeder: I use my drill for all this stuff, accepting that sometimes I will fly too close to the sun and damage the chip board… but as somebody has so many kids and heaps of flatpack furniture I think is probably a better option, especially when trying to hold my drill in all positions.

              I guess I don't really need it either, but it loks cool.

    Another set to keep an eye out for (ph1 ph2, pz1 pz2, 2x slotted) https://www.amazon.com.au/Wera-Kraftform-Lasertip-Profession…

    I've seen them for as low as $30, they're very grippy on screws and comfortable in the hand

    • Kommodore on 04/06/2026 - 01:54

      I got them for $26.16, but that was from Amazon UK, and Amazon Germany, they have since clamped down and dont offer Wera, Knipex, etc. from UK/Ger Amazon so I dont think we will ever get those prices again.

      Back to the Australia tax and made up excuses why they have to rip us off.

      I got the Wera 6 bit screwdriver set to keep in a drawer in the kitchen for when I couldn't be bothered going to the garage. Probably use it more than my regular screwdrivers these days. Most use is little innocuous tasks or changing batteries in kids toys etc, so the downsides of a magnetic set aren't a big deal, and I can always go and grab proper ones when needed.

      Wouldn't buy at this price, but a great bit of kit for day to day use:

        Kinda need a larger inside toolbox though.

    If I didn't have a near identical Wiha set, would have bought this. But this one can be hammered… And this is JIS although I own separate JIS bits.

    Interestingly the wood is injection molded 70% wood, 30% plastic composite.
