You can use it like a traditional ratcheting screwdriver driver where you inset the screwdriver into the fastener and then turn to the right and it tightens. As you see it looks like an ordinary screwdriver, but it’s not. Kobalt has a patent on the Double Drive Technology which makes tightening and loosing fasteners much quicker. Well it’s not the kit, it’s the screwdriver. Ok what makes this kit or screwdriver so special. My guess is you will be using the Philips and flat head the most. The rest are all different, so you do get a variety. Out of the 21 bit inserts, they are all different except you get 4 #2 Philip bits.

You get the screwdriver, a flex extension, 6 nut drivers and 21 bit inserts.
Which brings me to this review of the Kobalt 29 Piece Double Drive Screwdriver Set model 0362632. I usually don’t get very excited about hand tools, but the Kobalt tools just felt good in my hands. One thing that stood out was the Kobalt hand tools. In fact we will be doing a review of the 18V cordless driver soon, so for the first time I can really pick one up and play with it for a while before I make my opinion. The ones we played with at the event were cool, well balanced and seemed to be pretty good. From my brief use, they don’t seem like bad tools. I have seen them and picked them up before, but I don’t have a Lowes by my house, so I never really had the chance to play with them or use them in long applications. I have to admit before we went to the event, I have never really used any Kobalt tools. Besides if we would have saved $15, Dan would have just blown the money on scratch off lotto tickets.
The reason we didn’t do that was because it makes too much sense and that means we would have had to use our common sense. I know, why would we pay $35 to check a bag in when we could have left the screwdriver behind, carried the bag on the plane and when we got back to Chicago, just went and bought this screwdriver for $20. Unfortunately we couldn’t take them on the plane, so we had to pay $35 to check the bag. Luckily for us, they also gave us a free one to take home. Dan and myself went to the Kobalt tool event in NY and while we were there, we had the chance to play with the Kobalt Double Drive Screwdriver.
