I’ve been wanting a set of these for the past year, and decided to finally order a set as a birthday gift to myself.

Vessel screwdrivers are the best I’ve ever used, especially the cross-point heads. They fit traditional phillips screws very well but more importantly, they perfectly fit JIS screws (which are prevalent on Japanese motorcycles, of which I own two ) . No more cam-out for me.

All of the drivers in the set are also through-tang with steel striking caps, and the handles are made of a 70% wood/30% epoxy resin composite which is super-grippy and stays grippy even when covered in sweat, oil or grease.

Now I just have to wait a few weeks for them to ship from the other side of our little blue planet.

Yeah I already have the 980 Impacta #2 phillips driver from them:

My experience with this driver is what led me to order the Woody set. Just superb.

Hnnnngggghh

I’d like to say that for myself, but my brother really likes metrics.

That being said, I love being be introduced to fantastic products.  Thank you very much!

Another thing that I need that I didn’t know about before Oppo. I knew I wanted some good screwdrivers (mine came stuck in the scum in the trunk of a 900$ 99  Civic that I miss dearly) but now I know which ones.

JIS screws haven't been used in decades. How old are your motorcycles?
