I wouldn’t really buying these if you work with a group of people cause your buddies are always gonna want to borrow them. Maybe the perfect selection of bits, at least for me. Between Wera and PB Swiss I would say Wera just because the price is better and I don’t see any quality difference. Love em!

This is the best set of bits that I have found next to the $3/each Snap-on bits.Pros:These bits are precision machined and very hard. They are durable enough that I have not been able to strip one while using them in an 18-volt powered driver. They are not designed for use with an impact driver, but Wera does make a set that is. The shank on these bits is machined down to provide a torque-limiting effect, which does two things: (1) It limits the torque the bit experiences at the fastener, keeping it from reaching the point where it strips out. (2) The narrow shank provides enough clearance that you can reach recessed fasteners, which is especially helpful in dismantling electronics or driving shallow countersunk screws. The bit holder for this set is a masterpiece. It holds 30 bits and a chuck, and yet it could easily fit in a pocket. The lid flips back and stands the bit holder up at a 45-degree angle, and the back row of bits flips back about 25 degrees to allow enough clearance to easily access the bits you need. The bits slide in and out fairly easily, but do not fall out if the bit holder is dropped while it is open (the lid might pop off, but it easily slips back on). The bit chuck that comes with this set is built very well and allows you to easily exchange bits without loosening the chuck on your driver.Cons:The bit chuck included with this set is very short and I would find it to be more useful if it were longer.Caveats:First off, this isn't a con, but a caveat emptor; this set is apparently designed for use in Europe. The slotted bit included in the set is a 1-mm bit, and it contains six Pozidriv bits, none of which have I found to be very often useful in the US (although Pozidriv is generally superior to Phillips, which is designed to cam out of the fastener at high torque load). As to the review in which the user experienced corrosion on the surface of the bits, all I can say is that I have had no such problems with my bits. If I was to guess, I would say the customer perhaps stored the tools too close to corrosives such as muriatic acid or pool chlorine, or lived in an area with high humidity and did not properly protect the tools. Tool steel is very susceptible to corrosion, and I wipe my non-chromed tools down with machine oil and store them far away from potential corrosives. Anyway, please don't let one bad review prevent you from trying out these awesome bits.2-Year Update:I have been using these bits for over 2 years now and I have yet to wear any of them out. They are used primarily for automotive work and some odd tasks around the house. I have used them in an 18-volt impact driver, but they see most of their use in a Williams T-handle ratcheting screwdriver. I still have not experienced any problems with rust, but I am good about keeping my tools clean, dry, and oiled. At this point, I have no issues recommending this set and will buy another one when this one wears out.

Pocket size, very ergonomic package of the right bits.Some people should be proud of the design of the case, the minimalist packaging and selection of bits and adapter.Will be getting more to place at the office, in the car, in the house “junk” drawer and in my tool bag(s).YES this little item is THAT handy.Thank you!

Not a fan of the carry case. Wish it had been designed to hold their handle. For me, the Security bits could be left out.

It's a Wera bit set. Machined beautifully. Awesome quality. Might be more expensive than others, but you get what you pay for.

Wera does it right.
