I found this out just last week when I hads to do some cell phoen surgery at work.

Sears has it for $9.99. I've had it for a few years and use it all the time for small computer/electronics work, so much that I don't even carry my old jewlers set around any more. But the T4 in the husky set may make it a good pickup. I do sometimes run into screws smaller then T5, but I don't recall ever needing a T9. What I do run into quite often however is a need for a PH#000 and the 12in1 only goes down to a PH#00. But at that point I normally use the end of a razor blade.

Even at twice the price it's a good deal and something you should have around if you happen to like to take small things apart. I’ve had one of these for a long time to maintain my folding knives.

I just dropped $20 on a fold-out Torx set. I only really needed two sizes, but it wasn't much more to get the whole set in the plastic fold out handle. This would have done just fine and saved me over $10. So I repeat my ouch. Ouch. For the amount that I need Torx drivers (not frequent at all) this is where I should have spent my money. Ouch.
