VESSEL BALL GRIP 1/4" Hex. Bit Interchangeable Screwdriver (Bit 3PC. (+1, +3 / +2, -6 / PZ2, PZ3) SET. 220W3J1)

Arrived 20 minutes ago and already put to good use. I've been dealing with a lot of situations where my phillips screw drivers was barely grabbing and stripping a lot of my screw heads. I found out that there is a japanese version of a phillips screw!I purchased this because I was killing a lot of my screws while working on various projects. My ceiling fan being one of them. I had just about chewed through the heads of many of my screws trying to remove it and I purchased this screwdriver set after realizing it had both styles of bits.I immediately ran into my room to do a test fit and wow. What a difference. Despite the head being torn to shreds this screw driver still was able to get enough meat into it to safely remove the screw.The build is good. The head part is basic plastic and does what it should do without any frills but the bits are great. It's got both japanese and regular phillips style heads along with one slotted.The magnetic tips come in handy as well. The handle while basic does provide some grip along with a smooth palming surface to make it less punishing my palm as I press down on it. I've still got much more screws to remove so if things should change i'll update accordingly.

If you're looking for a quality, comfortable 1, 2, and 3 philips screwdriver for a reasonable price this is it. After buying a set of JIS screwdrivers for working on my motorcycle and discovering that they work better than US philips screwdrivers on regular, non JIS screws I wanted a Vessel for clean jobs around the house.If you're handy around the house, you owe it to yourself to grab one of these. The ball grip is surprisingly comfy in the hand and like I said, you honestly have to try and strip screws with this tip design. It fits tight in even the softest of chinesium screws you might come across.

This tool uses a Japanese standard, but includes common Phillips and flat sizes. Well-built, comfortable handle.

I have so many screw drivers but this is my go to. I just works feels good in your hands and is the best one I have now

Ever since I learned about J.I.S. screwdrivers I found myself liking and buying the J.I.S. products from Vessel. These remarks are regarding the Vessel Ball Grip 1/4" Hex. Bit Interchangeable Screwdriver (Bit 3PC. (+1, 3 / +2, -6 / PZ2, PZ3) SET. 220W3J1) from Amazon and no other product.The set includes the handle, Pozidriv bits PZ2/PZ3; J.I.S. #1/#3 and JIS #2/#6- (6mm slot or minus). After several months of use, these are my further observations.Pros: The screwdriver fits the hand well and is very comfortable to use. With the right pressure there is far less cam out than with Philips, especially on J.I.S. screws, although I have yet to discover where I can buy J.I.S. screws. The bits hold well and insert/remove easily into the handle. The magnetized bits are up to the task although obviously that doesn't have much value when you predominantly use plastic, brass, stainless steel or other non-ferrous screws.Cons: This product is not part of a "system". The handle can accommodate longer bits or an appropriate length bit holder (extension) from other vendors so long as they are at least 1.25" in length. Vessel does not sell any other similar bits that fit this handle such as double ended magnetic Torx bits or Allen (internal hex) bits in either Imperial or metric. A short hex extension would allow the handle to use a myriad of different bits from other vendors.These bits, after 4 months of frequent use, have never experienced water and yet it has been humid lately so there is slight but noticeable rust starting to form on the most frequently used bits. Removal of the rust with very fine steel wool removed the rust but also some of the labeling on the bits with only mild abrasion. Stamped or engraved bit designations would have been better. Many multi-bit screwdrivers have a way to store extra bits, if not in the body of the screwdriver itself. This would have been very nice. If one has a steel tool box, that is always nearby, just letting the magnetic bits snap to the outside of the toolbox might be fine. Instead, they could be carried in a rugged, resealable, clear plastic bag if the toolbox travels. If not ... well, as I said some form of bit holder would be nice.In summary, this is a very good product. The addition of greater rust resistance, a bit carrier, clearly readable and permanent bit types (engraved/ laser etched) an optional selection of same style Torx bits and a bit extension would elevate it from a very good screwdriver to a great screwdriver. I know some folks would like it ratcheting as well but I haven’t found this a deal breaker for my needs.

Great little screwdriver. The shanks are nice and solid feeling when screwing. Not to small or big in your hand.

Nice driver. But could use a case.

This is probably the most comfortable handle.
