Warranties on these tools would be a huge factor for me. As an electrician I tend to lean towards a certain brand. They have a lifetime warranty and I can go to Home Depot and swap them out with no hassle. Both Klein and husky have a hassle free warranty exchange. I know snap on tools have a warranty that is lifetime too but the exchange or repair period for them is a hassle to do.

Dudes... I absolutely not only love this series. But you guys do it perfectly!

The old Stanley black and yellow screwdrivers are the best. And anyone who pays $200 for a set of screwdrivers that are no different than a Klein set is not in the right mind. For the most part, spending these kinds of prices for snap on products is more for someone’s big ego

Not really, Snap on pays salaries, worker's comp and has highly regulated factory floors. Taxes are paid to the county, state, and feds. Imported tools don't have to do this. Once Snap on is gone, the imports raise their prices. The argument mechanics make is that they don't lose their tools, whereas lots of the cheap tools are bought as disposables. I buy used Snap on and don't hammer on them: best of both worlds.

Tool Party confirms a thing I was told by a mechanic. You buy the cheapest that isn't unsafe, and if it's not up to the job, _then_ you move up in cost as you need it. I'm a software guy, I've got a $200 keyboard because I use it all day every day, but my screwdrivers are a set comparable to the Huskys, because I use it for opening the occasional computer and putting together IKEA furniture.

Im shocked by the Klein drivers, my dads set from about 20 years ago has no bent tips or damage, they are extremely solid. I just got a set about a year ago, havent put them through their paces yet but hopefully they hold up.

So, food for thought, stress testing by the drill would likely be using the driver outside of its design spec. Varying metals handle various stresses differently. That may explain the damage seen by the snapon. Additionally, user error also plays into it, as the operator of the drill definitely holds the drill differently on the fasteners with every pass. Final note, PLEASE set the clutch on your drill to drill mode so the clutch stops skipping!!

Cutting the shank off the handles was a bad choice. I’ve had screwdrivers that the handle started spinning on the shank & became useless. That’s why you should’ve tested them- handle on.

"Capitalism is a shame" says the guy using an app on a $1,200 phone/computer, on the internet. Capitalism is the reason there were other brands of screwdrivers available for comparison in the first place: some equal to, or better than, Snap-on's crappy products; but at a fraction of the price.

As an Aircraft Mechanic I loved this video. Because when I first started I though snap-on was the best that ever was but now my opinion has changed. If it feels good in my hand easy to read (socket sizes) and doesn't bend but also has a thin wall to get in tight places it's a win in my book. Craftsman and Husky have been really good to me although snap-on is usually specialty tools that have the thinnest walls and strength and odd sizes

I would love to see more of this content. Was always fun!

I remember when I first started working in a shop, and the Snap-On guy came every week. Got talked into buying some tools. Yes, they feel good for long periods of use, and Yes, it was handy when he came back to trade in a busted tool for a spanking new one. But after the second or third time I replaced terminal screwdrivers, I realized I hadn't been replacing tools of other brands I used at the time. Kleins, Craftsman and Husky. Stopped buying Snap On and never looked back. Now, when working on terminals or live parts, I prefer Wiha's insulated tools and terminal screwdrivers, most of my stuff is still Klein. They still feel good and last as I need them. No complaints there.

If you actually do thos for a living the cheap * is junk. In the Aerospace industry we use FOD compliant tools. Snap-on is the only one that meets industrial standards by ansi, iso 9000, and many many other certifications along with 3000+ tool patents. Not to mention American made.

I’m an electrician and swear by my Klein tools. Love the no questions asked lifetime warranty.

PH screwdrivers are suposed to cam-out, thats why all results are so simmilar, thats how they are made. If you wanted to test screvdriver head bending or braking, use flat one, PZ, Torx, or any other that is suposed to stay in.

I once had to put a networking switch into a rack and I used the classic scissors ✂️ to do the job 😎

I really appreciate you guys' doing these tests; I'd noticed your video and watched it precisely because I'd been wondering what screwdriver set to buy; two stores (Harbor Freight and a pawn shop) had both offered a new set of the Pittsburgh brand screwdrivers like the ones you'd tested, but I was super-nervous about purchasing them because I'd thought they might be crappy like another bargain-priced set of screwdrivers which I'd bought at a sidewalk tools sale years ago, and that had flame-blackened tips that just crumbled (well, the Philips-head ones did, anyway) under merely moderate pressure. I am so glad now that I didn't buy the Pittsburgh screwdrivers, since it turns out that they apparently are indeed just brittle junk, just as I;d suspected they might be. I guess I'll go with the Doyle brand screwdrivers, then; thanks again for testing them for us all. :D

While a great episode of tool party, I feel like you guys might need to at least take the mythbuster route and setup some plexiglass walls for tests like this in the future.

As an electrician I’ve been loyal to Klein tools since the beginning, but in resent years their quality has been lacking. I’m definitely going to buy the Doyle $25 set. I’ve paid more than that for one Klein screwdriver in the past. I’m also highly disappointed in Snap-On. I feel like a lot of mechanics use Snap-On because of their name just like electricians with Klein. Great video!

Snap on's Ratchets sockets and wrenches are some of the best stuff for mechanics ( they are pricey) but some of their other stuff is hit or miss ..and electronics definitely a rip off

This rather amusingly shows that some of Harbor Freight's stuff really is every bit as good as name-brand, something I've said for years. Work told us to use this $200 torque wrench for a job that didn't really need a torque wrench, and it was always camming out of the slot despite supposedly being the right bit. In reality, the tool we used was $1.75 Harbor Freight #2 Phillips which didn't cam out.

I think something to heavily consider is that Snap-On tools have a lifetime warranty and you don't even need a receipt. Any Snap-On dealer will take a broken tool and have it replaced or repaired. I broke a small Snap-On breaker bar like 3 times and they gave me a new free one each time. I would have paid the same amount of money or more if I had to buy a cheaper one three times.

Love this segment and definitely digging the Jerry, Jobe combo! Keep ‘em coming! :) That said… I realize you guys are crazy busy pumping out content and probably filming and editing multiple shows at once, and as a result some things get rushed. Often times that’s the sound. This episode was particularly difficult to listen to. The levels were all over the place. It’s much less noticeable on my phone, but I like watching you guys on my tv in the living room. There are moments it’s so quiet I can barely hear them speaking, and a second later my speakers are exploding. Sometimes it’s tinny and thin sounding, other times it’s boomy. I find it super frustrating and distracting. Sorry to criticize. I adore this channel…but I just had to say something. It has been like this similarly in other videos, but this was the worst one. A compressor and limiter would go a long way. A show like this doesn’t really need dynamics. Just flatten out the audio levels, and put some eq on some troublesome spots and you’ll be golden.

Project farm is the only person I trust with tool reviews. I love y’all and it’s entertaining, but he knows his shit. Super thorough

everytime they do "stress test" i go into Safety panic after many years as an engineer, DAMN i can see so many risks, we also saw a lucky situation with the torque wrenches where it nearly hit the camera man in the head. Please, just use some kind of enclosure, just some lexan or maybe some heavy mesh..

I own icon and snap-on screw drivers(auto tech of 20 years) and under normal daily use i prefer the snap on screw drivers for sure. That being said my favorite screwdrivers are vessel

Best bit replaceable screwdriver is the patented Autoloader. Not super durable but lasts long for the money. Very good to have if you are tired of constantly changing bits.

My father was a carpenter by trade and he used to do most of the servicing on our vehicles as well. He would only, mainly get Gedore. I have inherited all of his tools, three HUGE boxes full, of different tools. some of which was also handed to him from his grandfather and father. It is amazing how those tools have stood the test of time and abuse, but still work so well. Compared to most of the "quality" tools one gets these days, that break the first time you use them.

As a Klein screwdriver owner, I'm in shambles. The good news is, I hammer my screwdrivers often, so I guess in the end, I did buy the right one lmao
