Just got one of the little "Blue Box" tool kits from Benchmade. Strikes me as a kind of cool, handy gizmo for 8 bucks. But anyone else think getting the bits back into the slots is a bit of a PIA?
 
Have one of those. Got a $5.99 Husky multi torx driver wrench that works a lot better and lasts a lot longer (the joys and magic of harder steel).

But there's nothing like that blue box for lancing one's fingers.
 
I have one. No, it's not hard at all to get them back in the box with the right technique. Slide them back in backside first if that makes sense.
 
After a bit of use, the slots will loosen up (at least mine has).

I think thombrogan is hinting at the bits poking into your fingers while inserting the bits due to the amount of force required.

Eh, grow some calluses.
 
Exactly like what Orthogonal1 said. Slipping over the bit and nailing the torx-head between my finger and fingernail.
