VDE Screwdrivers recommendations

[RDB85]

I’m looking to get a new set of VDE Screwdrivers. I’ve had Wiha and Wera currently. But I’ve found the grip on the Wera a little slippy in the hand when in the cold. I’ve seen both ITL and Boddingtons are highly rated. If anyone has used them or has any recommendations that would be great.

I have both ITL and Boddingtons , B's are the best IMO nice grip and soft handle.

Kleins are nice

The handle is quite grippy and the tips are very hard wearing and will stand up to plenty of abuse

They do look good. Also a lifetime warranty which is good. Does anyone know if Boddingtons have a lifetime warranty. I know the DNO use them.

Most of the guys I work with use CK/Wera/Wiha and the only domestic properties they work on are homers.

There’s an echo in here…

I’m sticking with Wiha. Goes with the torque driver I’ve got.
Any VDE should be up to the task, but it’s down to the blade size in relation to the terminal screws you would be working on. So there may be a good reason that wiha are common with domestics.

I too thought Boddingtons was the “cream of Manchester”

for RCBOs, wiha are great except for 1 thing.... the bits fall out even when locked in because the lock is pants.

Pound for Pound I still feel Wiha are the best

I bought the Wiha 6 piece Slim Set for around £30 from screwfix when they were on special and I have absolutely caned the carp out of them and they are still going

Have tried the Wera and Wiha multi bit changing screw drivers but just found it too faffy keep chopping and changing inserts when up a ladder ect. I do see their merits as you can travel lighter with 1 handle to multiple bits but I just prefer a good old fashioned one piece

Just had a look at screwfix 6 pc wiha slim set for £23. Good price if it’s the right sizes
