This screwdriver features a blade with magnetic 1/4 inch bit holder to hold the bits. The handle is a two component oval handle with high friction surface that provides comfort and increased torque. The bits are stored in an easy bit storage in the handle. Review: A great multi-purpose tool - This was an amazing tool from the moment it reached my hands. Full disclosure, I am a new guy in the tinkering world and I am learning it as I go. I had a small screw driver with a relatively good bit set, but I was lacking something with a bit more sturdiness. I wanted a solid screwdriver I could use as a multi-purpose tool, and this was definitely a good choice. It feels heavy in my hand (I personally like that) and has been helping me in every fix I need to do. The rotating handle is great for when you need to apply a bit more force. (In my country you need to force the screw in when mounting some furniture, so it helps me given that I have no automated tools for that yet). The ratcheting mechanism works great, very easy to use but was a bit counter-intuitive for me. If I want to tighten a screw (going clockwise) I need to rotate the switch counter-clockwise, but after you use it a few times it doesn't really matter anymore. In general a great multi-purpose tool. I recommend you get a good bit set to go with it, which is what I plan on doing next. Review: Excellent Quality - This is one of the best, well-designed ratcheting screwdrivers on the market. The gearing mechanism is extremely smooth and very precise. The innovative design built into the handle is unique, in that it can be used as a straight handle, or with the push of the release button, it rotates into a "pistol grip" (approx. 45 degrees) for increased leverage. It also has bit storage in the end of it. The magnet that holds the bits in place during use is very strong to prevent them from falling out. Compact and durable. Well worth the money.
