I might just go with the Pedros Pro T/L handle set which is the more updated version of what I had before. |

Just saw this -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIp9v0_sSno based on that, the pedros do have some advantages. I do agree that is annoying the park tool stand (whatever its called, the plastic piece the tools live in) is not in order but I know exactly which tool is which, it also works better for me in my bike room (I have a peg board). Also prefer the hard plastic handle vs the soft plastic. That said, the pedro does come with the T25 (my park didn't, I had to buy a T25 and T20 separately) and its nice that the bits are a bit longer for the RD (even though on the RD, I just use the long side and never had a problem.

My favorites are the Bondhus ball end screwdrivers. Yeah, you can't get a lot of torque with a screwdriver handle but torque isn't the idea with ball ends.

I think the answer is either the Park set or the Pedros set so I gotta do some research and figure out which has the better tolerances. |

I pretty much have all of the above- I prefer PB Swiss ball ends over the Wera, the round Wera sleeves slide off and do not offer a sturdy grip vs the hexagonal PB’s. I am really digging these -

Thats right, i realized that its a P-handle I want, not a T-handle. Hence trying to figure out if I want Park or Pedros. |

aren't the silca t handles the same as the pedros master t handle hex keys?

The Wera hex keys are awesome, but I'm posting the Wiha t-handles again. They have a regular hex key sticking out the side of the handle. I wouldn't say they take the place of a hex key, I think most toolboxes would fit both. Thinking about getting another set for the garage

As for ball ends on T-handles, I only know of USAG making such a thing and it's a very rare item.. ball ends are for spinning and T-handles are for leverage, so everybody limits ball ends to L keys and P-Handles which are L keys with molded handles. If you look at pro mechanic toolboxes, pretty much every single one of them has both T-handles and L keys with ball ends as they really are for rather different use cases. |

Personally I'm just not a fan of this type of tool.. the long ends tend to twist up on you because they aren't reinforced and the short end is far too long for truly high torque usage, like removing a pedal. We have half a dozen brands of these on our test workbench and half a dozen sliding T-handle brands, and I don't think I've ever seen anybody choose this tool over a sliding T when it's an option. Having said all that, the PBSwiss have by far the nicest looking and feeling handles of any of the brands we have here, and we know that the S2 steel they use is absolutely top notch.
