Look how much driver length he uses when the phillips is fully opened.

Looks interesting.

Surely the phillips is meant to be used with the handles unfolded....? :-\ It would have a longer reach that way.


In any case, I've decided I want one. :)

Sorry  :D, that was meant to say "loses"  :D  The actual driver starts off looking a decent length and then all seems to be lost in the handle itself.

NEWS BREAK! The crucial will sell for $40 is what I am told, much better than the $60 we thought. Also the slotted driver has more reach then the phillips, when fully opened it's a half an inch long. I don't think its too bad because the skeletools drivers are short as well. After playing with the tool I am really liking it and I see a good future for Gerber. I don't like it as much as the skeletool but only time will change, I am more concerned about the strength of the pliers more than anything, they seem a little thin. Oh well, we'll have to put it to the test then won't we  :D
