Did you know that Wilde manufacturers wood handled screwdrivers? Neither did I! With advanced plastic materials so readily available these days, it has become fairly difficult to find nice wood-handled screwdrivers. It is of course even harder to find wood-handled drivers that are made in the USA.
This 7-piece set features Wilde’s complete wood-handled driver selection – #1 and #2 Phillips and a range of slotted drivers.
These drivers’ handles look to be less ergonomic and have more of a classic look, but I don’t see that as a bad thing. I have plenty of high-tech polymer and bi-material handles that are great for heavy duty torquing and would love to use drivers like these for more relaxed projects.
At $28 for the 7-piece set, this is a pretty good buy, matching the per-driver cost of this popular Felo wood handled screwdriver set. I can attest that the Felos are quite comfortable to use, but they lack some of the warm feel I was looking for when I ordered a set for home use.
