I just bought the 11&1 @Home depot Saturday. & $21 bucks. I went to Lowes right after and checked out the tough built tool boxes and the Klein Mod box tool boxes. That Klein orange is so awesome. I'm sold. Klein and knipex are my go to tools. A great video brother. Have a great weekend. 😊
I know… they just keep coming out with them. 😂 I wouldn’t have bought it if I wasn’t wanting to get another one if this type to make flip screwdrivers for specific things. I thought why not get it and share it. I did buy the last one knowing I was giving it away. 😂
@@MORGANSMaintenance Jokes aside, the video is very good - after watching it I know everything about the tool I will never buy :) I just realised the only exchangeable screwdriver I have is Wera and I don't have any ratcheting ones. That shows my need for screwdrivers. But I have 3 cordless impact drivers, 3 cordless light-duty drill-drivers, 1 cordless heavy-duty hammering drill-driver, 1 cordless heavy-duty drill, 1 corded light-duty drill-drivers, 2 corded heavy-duty drills (non-stationary ones). And two full SYS1 Sortainers with bits in every possible length and variation. Not to mention two backup boxes with the same assortment I keep in home.
@@MORGANSMaintenance 5 angle grinders, 3 SDS+ hammer-drills, uncountable amount of accessories for power tools I've used only once etc. Recently I needed to fix my own bed - these planks underneath the mattress got loose. I was trying to use screws to fix them and when looking for some clamps, I've found my Makita heavy-duty pneumatic stapler. I forgot I had it and it saved me a ton of time.
I just purchased the klein 11-1 impact ratcheting screwdriver couple days ago and I love it. That was my first Klein ratcheting screwdriver I purchased.
i agree with you on the placement of the controls on most ratcheting screwdrivers. I want to love them but they always cause me more headache than benefit. I wanna try this one but i got so many that I hate I'm scared to buy another one.
I bought and use it, but I use it more in the locked position than ratcheting. The only real advantage to this one is if you buy the newer KNect sets that work with it. They only fit in the ratcheting version
Bought the 11 in 1 rcht and I absolutely love it. I swapped out the whole 5/16” side for a Malco stubby 1/4” 5/16” flip bit for HVAC use. I kept the 3/8” bit but replaced the bit holder with my old HVAC 8in1 bit holder (PH2, Slotted, thermostat driver and schrader) It is now an essential part of my EDC.
Klein seems to be getting closer to a lot of their tools to have interchangeable ‘bits’. I like the flexibility of them. I saw this one on their website and thought the ratcheting was a typo as I was buying the other ratcheting new one with the orange bits. Wish I would have looked harder because the one you showed would be perfect for me. I usually keep the ratcheting locked but I find it a great feature when space is limited
I’ve been the same on most ratcheting screwdrivers because I don’t like having to use my other hand to change it… so I just leave it in the fixed position. That and it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks 😂 I’ve been a manual screwdriver person most my life.
I keep seeing videos about Klein shifting over to Lowe’s and being a big deal. Our Lowe’s had one sad end cap with two offerings and that was it for Klein there.
Mine has a lot of hand tools, but the section is pretty small. They don’t have much of the bags/mod box/etc. My Home Depot didn’t carry much in store either, now they have almost nothing
32501Hd comes in set mod case with bits now 47 pieces i believe they did this because people say dont put in impact and they included an impact shaft separate
Looks like the handle has a wire clip inside that locks onto the grooves in the centre of the 1/2" hexagon drive to keep it in position. I usually end up using my other hand to change the ratchet direction on the handle so the ratchet position doesn't affect me the same.
It’s a friction fit for sure. Maybe Klein is moving more in that direction instead of the ball bearings. That’s probably the more effective way to use a ratcheting screwdriver… my muscle memory just won’t let me do it 😂
Well, I guess I haven't bought a new Klein screwdriver in a couple of weeks. Here we go again! haha. I'm glad it fits my current sheath design too. Nice of Klein Tools to consider that. ;)
I’m the same about ratcheting screwdrivers, the placement always seems off, or the back drag is too much. I have Vessel ratcheting and like being able to dial it. I might have to pick this up to replace my Klein 11-n-1. I’ll set up the barrel of my current one with a specialty set up and keep that beside the new one. Thanks for the video.
I just received Milwaukee 15” structured tool tote. Unboxing tomorrow. I don’t have Veto bags but some of the original packout tool bags. You almost convinced me to get a Veto, but I do love my packout. It’s as pricey as Veto, so if I don’t like it it’s going back and I’ll ask you for a Veto selection.
@@brianhall9019 yeah I looked at those too. They do look nice. There is something about the pockets of a Veto. They are just different… or at least that’s what my mind tells me to justify the price 😂
I’ve never accessed a Veto. A lot of pockets collapse in on themselves. I’ll let you know what I think of it. It’s $269…but snagged Home Depot buy more save more deal ($50 off $199, $90 of $299) I threw in a $35 packout 1/2 organizer and got it all for $215…I can justify anything..😂😂😂
Thanks for trying the old school 11 in 1 shaft! Interesting that it doesn't fit though. I've discovered at least one reason for the 12 point design. I'll make a video about it soon so keep your eyes peeled 😉 Also I love the fact that your 111st tool review is on an 11 in 1. You timed it perfectly!
That’s pretty cool, I didn’t even notice that. I think it’s the ball bearing on the OG shaft, without it it would probably go. Appreciate you again for letting me know 👍
Yeah I’ve seen that. I haven’t decided if I’m getting it yet. It’s a little pricey for the sizes you get… but who am I kidding, I’m sure I’ll get it 😂 Appreciate it 👍👍
@sykotictendencies6032 true… anytime I can find ways to loose handles in my main bag is a win. My Lowe’s still isn’t carrying it yet, I’ve been waiting till I can just go in and get it.
@@MORGANSMaintenance I haven't opened it yet because I think the packaging is wrong. The package shows the ball detent on it like the older 11-1 impact version
@@mozzberg590 👍👍.. if I remember right, the ratcheting is held in with a ring… now the bit holders of the 11-1 are still ball bearing. I don’t think they have two options though, so I’d say if yours has the black ratcheting adjustment it should be the right one.
Thanks for the great video on the new Klien 11-1 impact-rated Ratcheting screwdriver, I have one on order arriving tomorrow. In your Klien non-ratcheting screwdriver video you showed a magnetizer but there wasn't a link to it can you post that link for me thanks?
I have a double ECX that I use occasionally too. It’s not impact rated, but I rarely take bits out of these and put them in my impact anyway. It’s just nice to have the option
You are the second person to tell me that. I believe it’s because some people were having issues with the shaft coming out a little too easy. If you kinda shook your screwdriver they would sometimes pop out. I don’t know if they added the ball bearing to help with that… but maybe 🤷♂️
Awesome video. I have both impact screwdrivers. Where can I get that nice holder or holster for the screwdriver that you said you saw in Johnathan video? I’m sorry o don’t know who Johnathan is, either. Great work. Thanks 🙏🏼
It’s been awhile since I made this video but I believe it was a Riley Knife and Tool Sheath Klein Tools Screwdriver Holster from Riley Knife & Tool - Fits your favorite EDC? #tools #klein ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KXGpHC6sqzI.html There is a link in the description of that video, but I believe it’s www.rileyknifeandtool.com
The new one they made like that because their new impact pass through socket set you can actually fit the sockets in the end of the screwdriver handle and make a pass through ratcheting nut driver
@MORGANSMaintenance other brands have them such as husky gearwrench etc. And they are hit and miss I mean it's a specialty tool not something you would use all the time unless you wanted to it would beat having to have shallow and deep well sockets but unfortunately klein is known for electrical tools however if they expanded into a full blown 1/4 3/8 1/2 impact rated set of pass through sockets I'm sure they would make a killing
I stood in the store for an hour, debating on what to buy. After watching this, I want to go try the Ratcheting driver but I walked out with the standard 11 in 1. Nice info. My question is, how much slop do you have in the handle? Does the teeth grind any? How smooth function is it after some heavy use?
It’s not the best ratcheting screwdrivers in the world… but for the price it’s pretty good. I’m not a big ratcheting screwdriver person so mine hasn’t got extreme heavy use (as a ratcheting) since I’ve picked it up. I don’t use a ratcheting screwdriver enough that most of the time I forget it’s even an option and I leave it in the locked position... too much muscle memory in my old brain of a regular screwdriver motion. 😂. The amount I have used it, it has worked fine. I also have so many screwdrivers, I swap around a lot. Hopefully some others can help you out with a better heavy use scenario that use a ratcheting style 100% One thing to keep in mind is that I believe the KNECT 1/4” set I believe only works with the ratcheting. I could be wrong on that, but I think that is true. So if you are thinking about getting that in the future, that may be a part of the decision.
Can you put the three-piece Klein nut driver shaft on it? That seems like the ultimate screwdriver, but I don't know if if that would be a good idea due to how long it would make the screwdriver.
You can put it on there since it has a 1/4 shaft. It is only a little bit longer than in the normal flip socket handle, you just have to attach it to the middle piece and get rid of either your 3/8 or 5/16 attachment.
Goodday sir,forgive my ignorance. You mentioned you're go to screwdriver. The particulars of this screwdriver will be appreciated,or is it the same as the one aforementioned? Thanks Cobus🐳
This is a ratcheting screwdriver option for the one I mention as “my go to” which is this one Klein Tools 11-1 IMPACT Screwdriver - It's What Else You Can Do With The Screwdriver that Matters! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PZIu7NTHCYc.html They are the same screwdriver… one is a ratcheting version and one is not.
Klein should be sending you a pay check if they arent. Just curious, do you ever hit the ratcheting switch by mistake? It looks so close to the handle where ill hold it. Regardless im gunna check it out.
I haven’t on this one yet. I do on my Vessel from time to time. They are the only two I use. I know Klein or Milwaukee could at least send me some swag 😂
Can I ask if any of you all have had trouble with this screwdriver? I bought one last night at lowes and opened it and the whole mechanism came apart first thing. Then I went back to exchange it today and on the new one the half inch hex part where the two impact sections go is stuck in the handle. Are any of you all having problems?
Lowes is the only place I can find this, but when I go to place the order it says item removed from your cart. But it's still in my cart. I tried this today, and I tried it a few days ago and the same thing! Anyone know where I can waste my dang $ already!?
It’s at Riley Knife and Tool… I have a video here with links in the description Klein Tools Screwdriver Holster from Riley Knife & Tool - Fits your favorite EDC? #tools #klein ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KXGpHC6sqzI.html I will have to look up exactly what the website is
So close to perfect they need to make it all magnetic so i dont need the single bit and make the nut driver like there multi nut driver so they hold the nuts lol

I wanna like them, but they tend to just get left in the “fixed” position. I just been turning my wrist for too long and My muscle memory hasn’t been programmed to use them. I know many people really really like them.
I’ll give it to them…They keep coming out with stuff. I don’t use as much of their stuff as I used to, but they are still getting quite a bit of my money 😂
