It has precision hand filed tips for accurate fit and vapor-blasted tip prevents plate chipping.  After trialing MANY top brand screwdrivers this is hands-down my absolute favorite.  This thing can handle the abuse of a hammer and the Nut Twister in the back came in clutch when I converted a few hundred overhead Fluorescent lights to LED.

KNIPEX Water Pump Pliers: These water pump pliers are light and stable, can be adjusted on the component quickly at the touch of a button and are self-locking on pipes and nuts.  Self-locking on pipes and nuts: no slipping on the workpiece and low handforce required.  Gripping surfaces with special hardened teeth, teeth hardness approx. 61 HRC: high wear resistance and stable gripping.  3 inch jaw capacity. These Knipex pliers are the best on the market and cover so many bases.

IRWIN Curved Jaw Locking Pliers:  When you need an extra pair of hands reach for these.  These are genuine Irwin Vise-Grips which have a 1-1/8" jaw capacity.  One of my favorites, this comes in handy more times then you can imagine.

LOCTITE Thread Locking Compound:  LOCTITE® 248 is a general purpose threadlocker with medium bond strength. This product is available in a convenient stick format. This threadlocker secures and seals bolts, nuts and studs to prevent loosening due to vibration. The product works on all metals, including passive substrates such as stainless steel, aluminum and plated surfaces. It is proven to be tolerant of minor contamination due to industrial oils, e.g. motor oils, corrosion prevention oils and cutting fluids.  These are expensive but a necessity.  The blue loctite covers so many applications and it lasts forever!

LOCTITE Thread Sealant Compound:  LOCTITE® 561 is an white, semi-solid methacrylate thread sealant stick, an ideal toolbox product for maintenance and repair that won’t spill or leak. Fast, reliable curing on metal, tapered pipe threads and fittings with a thread size up to M80/R3”; its breakaway torque rating is 2Nm. This is a low strength product for easy disassembly. Service temperature is from -55 to +150ºC; NSF approved.  I like this stuff better then thread tape and I don't need to worry about it fouling up regulators!

LOCTITE Anti-Seize Compound: LOCTITE® LB 8060 is a silver colored, heavy-duty, high temperature, anti-seize naphthenic oil thread lubricant in a stick form. Its smooth texture is suitable for protecting fine threads, snug slip fits or other closely mated parts. It is used to lubricate and permit easy disassembly of assemblies exposed to high temperatures. It is typically used in applications up to +1,598 °F (+870 °C).  Being from Wisconsin, I know rust.  Do yourself a favor and slather this on everything that will see weather.

WERA Micro Slotted Screwdriver: ESD-safe Micro screwdriver ideal for wire terminals and PLC's! Dependable protection against electrostatic energy and associated damage.  Power zones with integrated soft sections ensure the transfer of high loosening and tightening torque; a precision zone for the right rotation angle during fine adjustment work. The Black Point tip offers optimized corrosion protection and an exact fit. If it's not in the bag it's in my pocket.  Great for twirling and is the perfect size for control panel work.

Klein Multi-Bit Electronics Screwdriver:  Electronics Screwdriver with four different non-magnetic tips in one tool, includes #0 and #00 Phillips plus 1/8-Inch (3.2 mm) and 3/32-Inch (2.4 mm) Slotted tips.  Rotating cap for optimum and precise control.  Corrosion-resistant chrome plated barrel that includes two double-ended bits that exceed ANSI standards.  Heat treated precision ground tip for greater strength.  I was pleasantly surprised by this Multi Screwdriver.  Robust and very precise.  The small phillips are a necessity for any toolbag.

SNAP-ON Utility Knife:  Auto retracting with a quick-release spring-loaded handle provides storage for extra blades and convenient blade changes.  The most dangerous tool in the workplace.  The auto retract does work and saves your digits!  This is Snap-on quality and the extra blade storage is awesome!

CRESCENT Wide Jaw Adjustable Wrench: This 6 inch wide jaw adjustable wrench has a Jaw capacity of 1-1/8". Micro-serrations on the jaws provide a tighter grip on the fastener thus helping to generate 4x more torque than traditional adjustable wrenches.  Laser etched scale in both SAE and Metric sizes allows easy fastener size identification.   After purchasing 7 different crescent wrenches I have settled on this amazing Wide Jaw Crescent wrench.  Surprisingly narrow jaw so you can still get in tight spaces yet large capacity to grab the big stuff!

MAGLITE LED Flashlight:   Robust and simple 2AA flashlight with a LED Beam that focuses simply by rotating the head. The Multi-mode electronic switch offers two different power settings - a maximum-power setting that yields maximum brightness and a 25% power setting to conserve battery power.  Run time of 11 hours on High and 25 hours on Low.  156 meter beam distance with 127 lumens this flashlight is powerful yet will not blind you while working.  I still have my original Mini-Mag!  These are the perfect size and I love the twist head.  I do not like push buttons and I do not like the small form factor lights.  Try it and agree!

STANLEY Tape Measure:  This 12' or 3.5m Tape Measure features Dupont Mylar® polyester film which gives this tool incredible glide and life.   A tru-zero end hook gives accurate measurements and a metal case gives durability and small form factor.  This Tape Measure has Imperial and Metric graduations! Best of both worlds and one of our favorite tools!  Metric measurements are way easier to read and remember! Example: 1610 is way easier to remember than 63 3/8" and millimeter divisions are way faster then 1/16's!

MILWAUKEE InkZall Fine point Permanent Marker:  Fine point marker- black permanent non-toxic ink.  Quick dry time- reduced smearing marking.  The durable tip is designed to withstand writing on rough surfaces such as OSB, cinderblock and concrete and writes through dusty, wet or oily contamination. The hard hat clip is designed to clip onto the brim of hard hats for easy access.  Best marker on the planet!

INSIZE Ruler:  Stainless steel construction and featuring a sliding clip which allows you to use this ruler as a depth gauge.  Contains an inch and metric conversion table on the back of the ruler.  Short measurements without a caliper are tough with a tape measure due to the hook.  This is my preferred daily carry!

FLUKE Electrical Meter: Compact, true-rms digital multimeter for electricians. Includes multimeter, 4mm silicone test leads, holster and manual. Integrated non-contact voltage detection keeps you safe.  The non contact voltage detection works great and saves you the need for a pen style detector.

Whoa, dude, I gotta tell you, this tool bag is like finding that perfect wave – it's got everything you need for a gnarly job, and then some. I'm usually out there hanging ten, but when I’m on land, I’m fixing up my beach shack or tweaking my van, and this preconfigured tool bag, man, it’s my go-to sidekick.

The 600 denier poly ripstop? That's not your grandma's tote bag, bro. It’s durable enough to toss in the back of my buggy without a worry. And that stainless steel hook is a genius touch – hangs up like my board on the wall.

That IDEAL 7 in 1 Screwdriver is the Swiss army knife of screwdrivers, man. I’ve used it more times than I’ve waxed my board. It’s solid – survives being dropped, kicked, and even used as an impromptu hammer when the situation calls for it.

KNIPEX tools? Say no more. Their Water Pump Pliers and High Leverage Diagonal Cutter are the Big Kahuna of tools. They grip like my hands on a rail during a tube ride, and those cutters slice through wire like a hot knife through coconut oil. Using them feels like catching the perfect break – smooth and totally in control.

EKLIND Hex Keys are the silent heroes. They're like that chill surfing buddy who’s always got your back – reliable and always there when you need them.

The KLEIN Long Nose Multi Tool & Wire Stripper – this thing is like the all-in-one tool I never knew I needed. It strips wires cleaner than peeling a banana and the crimping action is crisper than a dawn patrol air temp.

Now, let me shine a light on that MAGLITE LED Flashlight – it's bright enough to find a lost fin screw in the sand at midnight without scaring off the beach babes with glare. And the STANLEY Tape Measure – finally a tape that doesn't jam more than an old cassette player.

Look, I might not know my way around a circuit board as well as I do a lineup, but with this kit, I feel like I could give it a solid go. It’s the perfect combo of top-tier, quality tools that would make even those landlubbers in construction tip their hard hats. So, whether you’re fixing a leaky shack or setting up the ultimate beach bonfire pit, this tool bag is the key to doing it right.

Bottom line: if you're tired of rummaging through a pile of rust and despair to find that one screwdriver, upgrade to this set. It’s like upgrading from a foam board to a custom shortboard – totally worth it. Now, if only they made a surf wax that worked as well as these tools...

Well, strap me to a Furby and call me King of the Fluff! When I'm not busy revamping those nostalgic little critters in my top-notch Furby refurbishment empire, I'm quite the handyman. But let's get down to brass tacks. The DEAD ON Toolbag? It's as robust as my gym routine, and trust me, I've got the biceps to prove it! The KNIPEX pliers? They’ve got a grip tighter than my handshake at a business deal. That LOCTITE thread locker? It's like the hair gel I use - holds everything firmly in place. The WERA Micro Slotted Screwdriver, well, that little dude is perfect for twirling when I’m contemplating my next big Furby design. And that MAGLITE LED Flashlight? It’s as trustworthy as my trusty steed, Bubbles – my award-winning Furby. Honestly, every tool here feels like it was forged in the fiery furnace of Mount Bro-lympus. Now, if only they made a Furby-specific tool in this kit, it'd be golden! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - would totally flex with again! 💪🔧🔩🔨🐾

The Ultimate Carry for a Ugandan Mortician (Yes, You Read Right!)

Greetings from the Pearl of Africa! As a mortician in Uganda, I often get puzzled looks when I rave about my daily carry tool bag, but trust me, there's a twist!

DEAD ON Toolbag: While I chuckled at the irony of the brand name in my line of work, this toolbag is dead-on fantastic! My instruments of embalming have found a stylish and sturdy new home. The open center even fits my embalming fluid bottle perfectly! Plus, I can hang it around, giving a chic vibe to my otherwise somber workplace.

IDEAL 7 in 1 Screwdriver: I thought I'd never say this, but this is the Cadillac of screwdrivers. No coffin goes unscrewed in my workshop anymore. Plus, the Nut Twister is a godsend. Who knew a mortician needed a top-tier screwdriver?

KNIPEX Water Pump Pliers & Diagonal Cutter: You’d be surprised how often we need to make adjustments to caskets, especially during the rainy season. And that diagonal cutter? Not just for wires, my friends. Let’s just say, flower arrangements have never looked better.

EKLIND Hex Keys & KLEIN Multi Tool: These tools are like the Swiss Army knife in my world. From adjusting the funeral parlor’s furniture to fixing the odd hinge, they’re a blessing.

GREENLEE Wire Stripper: Perfect for those days when the funeral parlor's sound system acts up, and I need to step in as the DIY electrician.

DYKETAI Needle Nose Pliers: Super useful for fixing jewelry on the deceased. Especially when families bring in those pesky tiny lockets.

IRWIN Curved Jaw Locking Pliers: Helps with gripping things in our humid climate. Also, clamps down errant coffin linings like a charm!

LOCTITE Products: These little beauties! From sealing a casket plaque to ensuring no moisture seepage in the mausoleum, they are my go-to products.

WERA & Klein Screwdrivers: Because one screwdriver is never enough in the embalming world. Variety is the spice of... well, post-life?

SNAP-ON Utility Knife: Oh, the number of ribbon bows I've perfected with this blade for funeral wreaths! A cut above the rest, indeed!

MAGLITE LED Flashlight: For those dimly lit corners of the morgue and late-night ceremonies. Respectful, yet bright enough to ensure I don't trip over my own feet.

STANLEY Tape Measure: Measuring caskets, burial plots, or even the occasional parlor curtain, it's handy and precise. Plus, metric and imperial? A win-win!

MILWAUKEE Marker: Perfect for labeling personal items or making notes during embalming. The ink lasts longer than some of my clientele!

INSIZE Ruler: Depth checks have never been this easy. Also, very stylish for a ruler!

FLUKE Electrical Meter: This one’s a lifesaver, especially when you need to ensure the electrical fittings in the parlor are in top shape for a wake.

In conclusion, while my choice of tools might seem odd for a mortician, they've proven invaluable in ways I never imagined. Each tool has found a unique purpose in my establishment. I've found that the afterlife, just like life, requires a bit of ingenuity and a good set of tools! Five out of five coffins!

What I was looking for.

Been using the bag for a few weeks now, I daily drive it. Hook is a nice addition and the tools are exactly what I need. I've added a few of my own touches (Ethernet and ferrule crimper) and I appreciate that the bag has space for my own stuff.
