Been looking for JIS screwdrivers which don't cost a fortune here in Europe, not had much luck. Don't quite need it before a few months from now but it's still frustrating!
The Japanese company "Vessel" make JIS drivers that are generally quite well regarded and not too expensive.
Yeah, I'd buy their megadora ones ideally, £25+ per screwdriver is too expensive imo.
Check out "Vessel Famidora 8 TD-800" on eBay or other places! It's a lovely kit and affordable enough for me in USA to stockpile them.
Cheers for the recommendation. Doesn't seem to be JIS though? It can be hard to tell and I'm no expert at all, but they seem to be normal Philips.
Could be a mistranslation thing. They lock into my vintage Japanese stuff really nicely in such a way as to make me think JIS.
Ali Express might not have Mag-quality tools, but they will likely have something sufficient at a decent price.
I work on small engines/powersport engines. Most of the carburetors are Japanese. I love my Vessel JIS screwdriver.
Vessel has a cool version that you can strike with a hammer to loosen tough screws. I think it’s called “impacta”.
