I was just at Sears Hardware looking for materials for a couple of projects and stumbled across a new tool to their line.

It's a multi purpose micro screw driver that includes the following:

  • #00 Phillips
  • 2mm Slotted
  • #1 Phillips
  • 3mm Slotted
  • #1 Phillips
  • 3.5mm Slotted
  • T5 Torx :D
  • T6 Torx :D
  • T7, T8 Torx
  • T10, T15 Torx
  • Mini Driver built into handle cap
  • Magnetizer Demagnitizer
  • Adjustable length driver
  • Lifetime Warranty

The price for the unit is $9.99 and if you're a member of the Craftsman Club it's another 10% this weekend, so I bought 2 for $18.

This is the first time I have been able to find T5 and T6 Torx sizes without going to the Web, even the Blue Box from Benchmade does not have the smaller sized Torx. From a cost standpoint I usually pay around $6 for a single T5 driver and don't get the lifetime warranty, so this is a steal in my book.

Overall just from some initial playing I would say the quality is on the same level as Wiha if it's not made by Whia.

Check one out if you've been looking for the smaller Torx sizes and having trouble... The part # is 947484
 
Looks cool, I'll have to check it out.

BTW, I got a T6 craftsman torx screwdriver at Sears. Was like $3. I believe the part number is 45729. Looks like a jewelers screwdriver, made of black plastic, with a green plastic top.

A T6 and a T10 seem to work for most things with small torx screws. Havent run into a T5 yet. :)
