Hope this fits here... I have a few, mainly for gunsmithing. Good stuff !!! http://www.graceusatools.com/index.php
I looked at these last night. The company seems to be a good one with good products. Their screwdrivers have very good reviews among gunsmiths. There have been a ton of cheap screwdrivers with those wooden handles so at first, i thought they were cheap or junk too. I guess these were just the good ones the cheap companies were copying.
Hell of a bachelor party gift or new homeowner gift... much better compared to any of the crap you'll find in Lowe's / Home Depot !!! https://www.amazon.com/Grace-USA-HCTK10N-Gunsmithing-Accessories/dp/B00L9XZKCA
Yep... these are the real deal. I always wondered as a child what my father was doing with those weird looking wooden handle screwdrivers... now I know.
I think my dad had a couple sets of these screwdrivers before he passed. They're still in my mom's garage. Funny, cuz I always figured they were some odd knock-off brand someone had given him (dad only used American made stuff whenever possible). It'll be interesting if they turn out to be legit Murican tools. I'll have to check next time I'm down there.
I've had many wooden screwdrivers with that grip pattern on them and they were junk. The tips were incredibly soft that they would just bend easily. Because of that, I've always assumed drivers with those grips were junk. Grace has not done a great job getting their names out there. I'm something of a tool snob. I have a lot of Snap-on and German stuff like Hazet, Stahlwille, Gedore and Wiha. I don't believe I've ever heard of Grace before. I did see on their site that the Matco Trucks carry their sets.
"Grace has not done a great job getting their names out there.", That's for sure. I guess they just don't invest in sales and marketing. Only "negative" comment I've seen so far is that the tips are so precise that they may not fit well in some cheap and / or plated screw heads... http://www.popularwoodworking.com/w...log/highly-recommended-grace-usa-screwdrivers
