ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area What brand of tools do you use?

Another good US brand is Xcelite. Geared more toward the lighter-duty electronics market, as opposed to heavier electrical work. They make very good quality nutdrivers (including some with VERY long shafts) and screwdrivers, as well as the only decent interchangeable blade tool/handle system I have come across (99-series). Needle nose and diagonal cutters are pretty decent, as well.
