The CK dextro are fantastic screwdrivers IMO, but I've just bought a set of the Wiha interchangables (not torque) and I'm very impressed thus far. I looked at the Wera but really don't like the feel of their 'ergonomic' handles.
 
Bought a lovely set of bahco screwdrivers nice long handles, snapped 4 of them in as many weeks,
back using my indestructible CKs. I ve wound in 1.1/2 8s with a small terminal driver no problem!
yeehaa!
 
Highly recommend the ones I linked when you are next in for a set. Lifetime warranty too!

Was in the same shop I bought the screwdrivers in on Wednesday and ended up coming out with the side cutters! They have been excellent so far. Taking a bit of getting used to right enough as they are 160mm (only size they come in unfortunately).

to be honest i use a set of 160mm wiha cutters day to day. will happily cut 6mm so cant ask any more.

i dont know why people buy 180mm+ when you get over say 6/10mm you want croppers/shears anyway or it crushes the conductor (i have stripped 1mm-25mm with my shears, 25mm is about the limit to cut with the small knipex shears)
 
Wiha for me had them for years, they are solid pieces of kit, I've always had the slim vario range which are a good feature

I've just started to use facom. They seem pretty good, and a good ergonomic grip. Time will tell if they're built to last.
ive been using them for quite a while and im very happy with them

there very good but harder for me to find at a good price, i know a local shop that stocks facom drivers
