Hey guys,

A little OT but not much. I'm wanting to get a decent set of hex drivers, both t-handled and L shaped. I've never used the "balldriver" type, are then any good? How about the Bondhus brand. Are they good or should I look for something better?

Thanks

I like the Bondhus brand, the ball end wrenches have some advantages and disadvantages, they allow leeway in angle, but you don't have as much contact area as a regular wrench, and with a ball end you can't stick a screw on the end and it hold it.  IMHO, I have, and use both kinds, depending on the job I'm doing.

Bondhus are generally considered the best available hex wrenches...Wiha brand are also very good, as are "Allen" brand wrenches

For some platic T-handle wrenches, I found some nice ones in two places.

Sears has a nice Craftsman 7-piece set.  Lowe's has a nice 10-piece set made by Husky.
