The Maxi S5 claims to be the “only Phillips driver you’ll ever need.” Maxi promises it’ll drive fasteners normally requiring #0 to #3 Phillips bits without slipping or tearing up the fastener. Late-night-TV boasts aside, that sets of my BS alert.
The Maxistrike hammer may look like a reject from Dr. Seuss’s private hardware store, but that’s on purpose — the neck’s arc supposedly limits over-strike damage by presenting an angled (as opposed to straight) surface to the wood below. The manufacturer also claims its unique shape brings the head’s weight forward, much like the ever-popular Estwing.
