That’s funny.
Those tree fittings don’t look IP rated!
I like the funny with the switch to day and night.
@rolyberkin won this set I think I can remember. A very good win in my mind.

Luck so and so, I would never use them, just look at them in the evening.

That has been around for a few years, in I think three different variants. I know someone with one, the downside is with it being a rigid case, all the extra (old favourite) tools you'll want to add in can make it difficult to close. Also, do you want to be tied to one brand for all your tools, when you may favour Wiha drivers but prefer say Knipex pliers & snips.
Leaving the actual case aside, has anyone added up the best pricing on the Wiha tools included and compared to the £1,000+ price tag of this as a complete kit? It just "seems" expensive - I for one have picked up some great online offers on sets of Wiha Slimfix VDE drivers, hex nut and Torx drivers from the likes of Screwfix, CBY Tools & others... I just have a hunch that you may be paying £400 for the case, and £300 for tools that you already have or would not use. Maybe wrong. It's certainly not something you'd buy for your apprentice, so I'm not too sure the target market is that large.

 

[Rpa07]

Oh gracious No! you are correct,
I wouldn’t buy one at that price but I’d happily WIN one at that price.

Completely the wrong tool case for that job, should have been an all terrain one.

Funny advert.......

He looked around on the ground with his torch to find his knife that had ‘dirty water’ on it - probably that deer after all it’d been through - poor deer!
Edit - that’s ‘smart water’ the cat just told me!

All looks great until it arrives then you start checking the individual prices and realise you have spent nearly a monkey on a case.

 

[Pete999]

Oh come on Lads you know you would like one, you're all just making excuses cus you wouldn't spend the asking price, bunch of spoil sports, bet if Santa came down the flue with a set you wouldn't say no, I know I wouldn't, I have toolitus bad.

Love Wiha tools, use them every day, but have to agree that the sum of the cost of the contained tools would leave a very expensive case. Most of the tools are cheap as chips.
Surely you'd rather spend the same money on separate tools and a better container, such as a nice Veto to keep them all in ? I know I would.
Might even be able to get a Milwaukee packout system for the price. Much rather have one of those.

At 2:56 was that the predator sound? In the words of that great Austrian philosopher; “If it bleeds we can kill it!” But I’m sure the predator only had eyes for those tools.

What about this set @Pete999 ?

Yep very nice, what tickled me was the walk through the woods to repair some lighting, yes your choice is equally as nice as the one I picked, can you imagine though, getting a call to come and repair my outdoor lighting? worth buying the tools just to get that sort of kit, and to be honest it knocks the spots off of a Veto Bag imo, trouble being, I would be cleaning that lot after every job.

Done a bit of digging and the Knipex case in bottom Picture seem very similar in fact identical to the Wiha one.

£444 for the case alone.
