Great Driver
I am a fan of Wera tools, so knew the quality would be great a usual.Was caught out by the size of this beast or a driver. Thought the 200 mm was overall length, that is actually blade to start of handle. Total length was a little over 300 mm. The blade (head) is a perfect fit for the roofing/gutter bolts I use day to day for fixing down electrical containment, extremely snug fit and gets a very good tightness. Just feel sorry for the person that may need to under do it in future years. It is a nice feature to be able to get a spanner near to the handle to help with untightening stubborn older screws.Overall a robust screwdriver that I recommend, haven't had the heart to smack it with a hammer yet though far too shiny.

One of the best screwdrivers available
This is definitely one of the best screwdrivers available. I’ve been using this Chiseldriver and the lasertip version for years. Both are great. This Chiseldriver is the tougher of the two, because of its 'thru-tang blade' that means you can hammer it to loosen screws if required.Pros: Very comfortable in the hand. Ergonomic. Long lasting. High quality. Very tough!Cons: I’ve found PB Swiss still has the edge over Wera. (The PB Swiss equivalent is the Heavy Duty SwissGrip screwdriver, which also has a thru-tang blade.) If you need a slotted screwdriver, then PB Swiss is brilliant because the unique ‘parallel tip’ reduces cam-out. For a Philips screwdriver, however, then there's not much in it between PB Swiss and Wera.

Robust, reliable and precisely manufactured.
This screwdriver has to put up with very rough handling from my side. The last one (I lost it unfortunately) had been with me for 10+ years being treated as a tool. One of the first things I did with it was chopping a 4" Nail and there is no mark on the blade to see. I have fallen in love with the Wera screwdrivers. For daily use I am using the stainless versions as they are very universal. For the rough bits of work it has to be the Kraftform Plus for me. And on the electric side there are the VDE versions. I tried other screwdrivers but split handles, worn or damaged blades made often very quickly an end to these attempts. Most of the time I only have to replace a Wera screwdriver as I lost it somewhere. And even the stainless ones being in constant use are lasting years and never leave rusty marks.

Great for removing old slotted screws
I am a joiner and often have to remove tough, old slotted screws in doors and window frames. These drivers are great as you can give the driver a few taps with a mallet while turning, which often helps to loosen the screw. I have had Snapon drivers in the past and can say the quality of these Wera drivers is just as good, for a much lower price. They will last you years as long as you don't use them for jobs you would use a crowbar for. They will lever and chisel within reason though.

Hexagon shaft, flared blade, slotted tip screwdriver.
Hexagon shaft blade thru handle. Can be gently struck to free screws with painted or burred slots. 12mm wide flared blade. 2mm tip thickness. Tip is shorter than usual. One component handle, not soft two component, easy to wipe clean. Strong, sturdy tool made in Germany by Wera. The Wera Catalogue states that some of the screwdrivers in this range have single component handles, which are the larger sizes available.Vessel screwdriver, dedicated chisel screwdriver information:No 970 MEGADORA chisel-type screwdriver. Made from high grade chisel steel. Tang thru shank with large end cap. Tile and brick chipping. Metal end cap for hammering. This is a chisel screwdriver and cannot be used to turn screws. Blade tip is sharp like a bolster chisel with two bevels. Photos; Padre 12mm cold chisel, roughneck claw hammer anti-vibe. I have bought many sizes of Padre cold chisels, roughneck anti-vibe, 16 ounce, claw hammer for chipping; masonry, plaster and render from amazon.co.uk. I do strike my expensive Wera slotted screwdrivers, only to remove paint filled, slotted screw heads or burred slotted screw heads so they can be removed easily.

good quality
Good quality solid screwdriver to enabling you to use with a hammer or spanner if needed. it is also good to use in the hand and you can use it instead on messing up your VDE screwdrivers on non-electrical items, saving VDE screwdrivers for what they are to be used for. good general purpose screwdrivers, ideal for strip down maintenance of machinery.
