Is Linus Tech Tips Screwdriver Best? LTT vs Wera, Snap On, PB Swiss, Milwaukee, MegaPro, GearWrench

My heart was pounding the entire time I was watching, but I'm so glad we submitted to be included in this round-up. Seeing the results from an independent source hits so different and I'm incredibly proud of our team. Also, massive props to Todd for changing the game when it comes to objective tool reviews. I'm sure this won't be our last crossover episode ;) - LS

Project Farm taught me a thing: The cheapest things aren't worth the trouble, and the most expensive aren't worth the money. The mid-tier you find good tools that don't rip your wallet.

Never have I thought I would be into late night watching screwdriver reviews. That was very entertaining and useful.

love that I dont have to turn on 2x playback speed unlike most tool review videos ...thats some dense efficient content!!

Sometimes I think, "man, this guy must have the most epic tool collection." Then I remember that almost everything is busted.

i cant express the immeasurable value this channel alone CONTRIBUTES TO THE EFFICIENCY OF MY TIME, THE PRESERVATION OF MY MONEY, AND THE CONFIDENCE THAT I"VE GOT THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE JOB.

wow, I didn't expect the LTT screwdriver to be that impressive and I also didn't expect such intricate testing procedures, great job on both parts

As a mechanic, there aren't many things (other than engineer's decisions) more annoying and frustrating than ratcheted tools having so much rotational slop that you can't unscrew anything in a tight area. And the PB Swiss's magnet is almost strong enough to lift a small single choke carburetor, that's impressive

No way, can’t believe you testing LTT screwdriver this fast, love your content!!

The crossover we didn't think we needed, but glad it happened

I hope you all have a great day! And don't forget to smile more!!

Honestly, whenever I go to buy smaller tools or other shop equipment, I tend to check this channel first for a review on the best brand to get. The objective and thorough testing are second to none on this platform

PB Swiss feels like the screwdriver you use in industrial applications. Where losing a single bit during maintenance can be disastrous, so you need that magnetic pull!

Most tool companies are trying to sell you an entire line of tools. LTT went super hard into 1 tool and it really shows. So cool to see brand vs obsession.

I don’t usually comment on videos but I’ve been watching your reviews for a few years (along with Linus) and my dad works for a fiber internet company working on servers and such and I saw this review and had to buy him the LTT screwdriver! I’m rewatching the video again with my dad as he was skeptical about giving up his Milwaukee and he’s excited now! Keep up the good work sir!

"The Snap-On comes with two bits" Damn near fell out of my seat laughing. That company needs to get itself together.

Props to Project Farm for making a 20 minute screwdriver comparison video that is entertaining to watch 😂

I’ve used the Wera daily in an aerospace environment for a few years without issue. After a few days of use the back-drag on mine was very acceptable, though most hardware in aerospace uses a locking feature so it’s not a huge deal. It feels very solid and high quality. If I broke it tomorrow I’d buy another, although I don’t see that happening. Love the channel!

Wow this is a really great and dense video, didn't need to speed it up like i usually do with other review channels. Really informative too! Keep it up

Two takeaways from this: LTT's driver is actually really good and stands up to task, especially for tech work and I'm surprised at how much it matched Linus's hype. The second takeaway is that Megapro is an amazing value for money. Like an insane amount of performance for relatively little money.
