FAQs
Can I use these screwdrivers with a hammer?
No. These are precision manual screwdrivers. Striking the handles will damage the wood and potentially split the handle.
Are the blades magnetic?
These models do not feature magnetic tips; they are traditional slotted screwdrivers.
What material are the handles made of?
The handles are made of high-quality, durable wood, specifically chosen for its tactile grip and longevity.
Can these be used for electrical work?
These screwdrivers are not rated as insulated tools and should not be used on live electrical circuits.
Does the set come with a case?
The set is provided as a 5-piece collection; storage solutions such as tool rolls or wall racks are recommended for organization.
Troubleshooting
Handle feels rough or dry
Lightly sand with fine-grit sandpaper and apply a thin coat of food-grade mineral oil to nourish the wood.
Tip slipping out of screw head
Ensure the screwdriver size matches the slot width exactly. A blade that is too thin will damage the slot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These screwdrivers are ready for use immediately out of the box. There is no specific setup required other than ensuring the correct blade width is selected for the screw slot to avoid damaging the fastener. To maintain the handles, store the set in a dry tool chest away from direct humidity, as prolonged exposure to moisture can cause the wood to expand or warp. Periodically wiping the metal blades with a light machine oil helps prevent corrosion, especially if working in humid or outdoor conditions. Avoid using these tools in conjunction with power drills, as the wooden handles are designed for manual torque application only.
