The Pratt-Reed Catalogs www.prattread.com also list similar handle on stubby nut driver sets 82048 or 84048 (SAE) and 82049 or 84049 (Metric) – the 84--- series coming with cushioned grips. Pratt-Reed may be the OEM for several brands including some Klein and Sears drivers.

Not only easier to fit in some spaces, but just plain less work to wield these things in awkward situations or angles becaust they aren't so dang long. Agreed.

These look as good as any and for $2.50 a driver, not bad. Every shop needs some decent stubbies. These look as good as any and for $2.50 a driver, not bad.
