Ok, hoarding back on.
I somehow (thanks
@WreckITFrank ) got into Klein stuff. If I am honest, I was sort of prejudiced because they are sort of the opposite design of what I like in a screwdriver. I prefer smaller handles that have a form as opposed to round.
That being said, I have come to appreciate them. I think I have bought most of them (I know I know) or at least a variation of most of them and the Wiha clone (not recommended it’s HUGE handle but it does have t20 and t20 which I need for the tacoma as opposed to t10 and t15 for the Kline so it’s the center console screwdriver in taco).
So, onto the deals!
$50 for four multi bits. I wanted a dedicated nut driver, could not find the 5 in 1 I wanted for less than $20 and was not about to spend $28 for the 6 in 1 or $30 for the 7 in 1 magnetic (deals only!), but you get the 14 in 1 ($15), 6 in 1 stubby ($10), 4 in 1 precision ($15) and the 7 in 1 magnetic nut driver which has all the sizes ($30) for $50.
I have all the other ones (I have the 14 in 1 precision rather than the 4 in 1 as well as the precision with the bit box) besides the nut driver, but for an extra $20 for $40 worth of screwdrivers I will toss them in the second electricians kit.
These are really nice for insulated because they give you the long cabinet ones with the slim tips. Yes, one weights about 3 weras ... but they are quality. $40 for four.
I also like the chinesium ratcheting one on sale for $20. I have two of these.
I really dislike the extendable one. Chinesium again, but crap. Just crap. It does have a lot of bits and it’s now a console screwdriver (jeep I think, I basically just dole out screwdrivers like packs of cigarettes). Hard to adjust, bits won’t stay in the holder in the handle etc. did not buy the stubby. I assume it’s also crap.
I do like the 6 in 1 extended reach one on sale for $14. They can work into places the 14 in 1 can’t and serve the same purpose as the four piece insulated I posted above as I got the one with both squares (my one stubby also has both squares) for $16 so that’s in the second kit whereas the four piece slim insulated is in the big kit.

Of course, the regular Klein screwdrivers and nut drivers are nice (set on sale for $50, $100 with nut drivers and other stuff), but I am all about the multi ones and slim insulated ones as that is the advantage to me. If I want a regular screwdriver, I just grab a Felo wood one (they are littered about both houses and garages at this point). In that regard, I also got the 10in shaft giant slotted and the big slotted striking cap one.
I also bought every Klein farkle I thought I might need from the visor light to a hammer to a tape measurer to a pull tape to a couple meters couple knives etc (going to get a fluke when I make up my mind what one I want for car work and which one I want for a clamp on house style).
PS I bought the Lenox 6 in 1 nut driver on sale for $14 as well. It’s half the comparable Klein. Been happy with Lenox. I am waiting on my Lenox pliers wrench which is really cool. Will compare when they are both here. Note only the Lenox and the Klein 7 in 1 have 1/2in. 5 and 6 in one Klein’s, the 7 in 1 ideal etc do not have 1/2in

PPS I bought the mayhew cats paw screwdriver set posted here on sale as well. For the good of the thread I tell myself. My mayhew punches and chisels arrived but National took warehouse posted an incorrect description and picture so the one I got did not have the handle. I was miffed and almost bought the other set when I found the pen I thought I ordered, but decided I am never using that handle so I do have some modicum of self control.
