Jeff Geerling | LTT screwdriver review: YouTuber beats Snap-On? @JeffGeerling | Uploaded September 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
LTT just released a new ratcheting screwdriver, and it costs $69.99. Is it merch or is it a quality tool that can match other pro tools in its price class?
I bought screwdrivers from PB Swiss, Snap-On, Wera, and more to see which ratcheting screwdriver is the best!
