Wiha76000 SoftFinish CentroFix Bit Holder

This is a simple, hand held, bit-locking driver, if that's what you are after.It accepts the standard 1/4th inch bits that fit your various screw heads. They lock into the holder with no magnet. It has a collar that you push forward to engage and the bit locks in when it retracts back. To release, you push the collar forward and it lets go. There is no magnet to hold the bit in beyond this. A weak magnet would be a nice touch to keep bits from going flying, when you are careless. The connection is solid though. It locks bits in there tight. You can use 1" or longer bits if you want a little more reach. Let's face it. Screwdriver tips wear out, not usually the handles and shafts. So just throw on a new tip when it's time has come. That's about it for function....Form is ideal though. It's solid and weighty, but not overly so. Feels solid and durable. The red on the handle is a hard plastic, and the black is a solid rubber for grip. The strength is in the shape though. It is correctly shaped to fit in the hand very well.Your hand works with the last three fingers providing most of your grip strength and the thumb and pointer finger used for pinching things. (That's why in ancient Japan, a punishment for Samurai was cutting off the pinky finger, which put them at great disadvantage in gripping a sword securely) This handle takes advantage of the anatomy, with a fat, meaty end for grasping, and a thinner neck for the thumb and index finger to fit for fine movements. It feels perfect, perfect in your hand.My only issues with alignment. I had to return the first one due to the handle and head being offline by 5-10 degrees to the right. This one is better, but still seems just a hair off to the back this time. Still, not enough for me to return, but pay attention and make sure yours is in plumb on arrival.Overall, it's a solid, simple bit-holding screwdriver with a perfect handle.

This is the best nut-driver tool I have used. I am very impressed with the quality and sturdiness of this tool. Absolutely no wiggle with the bits. I love this handle, and highly recommend it!

I got obsessed with buying bit drivers trying to find the best. I kept skipping over this because no ratchet and no bit storage? But after hearing such good things from so many people I bought one and am now convinced.The highlight is the centrofix bit holder. Its the best by a mile. Most bit holders are fine for 1" bits. Some tiny bit better than others but it usally isn't huge deal. When you start using 2" or Wera 89mm or 159mm bits they just make every other bit holder feel like cheap junk they're so sloppy. Yet Centrofix when it locks on a 159mm long bit it literally feels like a 1 piece screwdriver. There is zero play. It feels like such quality every time you use it. The longer bits make getting into tight fights so much easier but have always avoided them because how sloppy they feel. But no longer.As for rest of bit driver, the lack of ratchet/storage is only negative. Lack of storage makes it a bit less handy but when actually using it the lighter weight is nice. Shape also fits my hand perfectly. Just enough diameter and with the grippy surface I can apply lots of torque, yet it doesn't feel bulky when dealing with tiny screws. FWIW I was doing 7nm with ease -- Which is usually most I need to do and I'm happy if I can without hand slipping or having to grip so hard shape hurts my hand or something. One thing to note there is a yellow ESD version of this bit driver that is tiny bit narrower which may be preferrable to you.

This is a really good multi bit screwdriver. I love the large handle and great grip. It fits regular bits and the locking mechanism holds them tight without any rattling or falling out. I got this and a set of bits to keep in my truck bc it doesn’t take up very much space but can handle many tasks. I find myself going to my truck and using this instead of my other screwdrivers.

The photo shows 3 of my favorite drivers. On the left, the Wiha 387 (made in Germany) holds bits firmly without any wobble, even long bits like the Milwaukee 3-inch bit. It is unchallenged for holding bits rock steady and wobble-free, the way a real screwdriver is supposed to do (but most bit drivers do not).In the middle, the Anex 397 (made in Japan) ratcheting ball handle screwdriver (Philips and Straight 4-inch shaft) features a well placed reversing lever (not easily bumped out of position like many other ratcheting drivers) and a fine control thumb-and-forefinger drive that fits your hand like a glove.On the right, the MegaPro Automotive (Canadian/American made) magnetic tip driver has the lowest back drag and the best onboard bit storage for standard 1-inch bits in a large size driver for big hands.Can't go wrong with any of these fine drivers.

Everything about this blade-holding screwdriver exudes quality and solidity. The handle is very comfortable. The bits or blades are held very solidly, with no wiggle. The locking mechanism is very secure.I really like this tool—probably Wiha's (and the world's) best screwdriver with interchangeable blades.One advantage is that it is one of the few bit holders that can use the Wiha double-ended bits of these sets:Technician set model # 77781,Tradesman's set model # 77780 andIndustrial set model # 77782.The photo shows the holder with a MaxxTor impact blade.

It is a very nicely built tool. But what is most useful about it, is if you are buying 50 radically different bits for JIS, POZDRIV, Robertson, Torks, Phillips, HEX drive metric and inch, and and and. I do not need durable drives bits, only 50 different ones, that are small, organized to solve some problem here and away. This tool grabs on to the bit firmly and feels good in the hand, and makes a tight connection.
