    Hi Guys

    Found a reasonably priced set of JIS screwdrivers for US$21.50 located here:

    http://www.ikaswebshop.com/hoji3rdgescs.html

    Don't know if anyone else may be keen, apparently if you email them they are willing to ship internationally. I'll post up their shipping quote to AU.

    Gah I just ordered a carby kit from Litetek... Should have known they sold them too, missed that one. Maybe @maelstrom will throw me in a set for free? :D

    Suppose the shipping will make or break the deal, Thailand is closer than the US...

    Likewise. Very happy with mine.

    See the post here about JIS drivers that led to him stocking them. :)

    Yeah the forum search ignores three-letter words like JIS for some reason :idk:

    Ah that would explain it, I was sure it had been discussed somewhere before. Oh well.

    I like the full blade-through of the Koken drivers because you can shock the screw, with a light tap, before undoing it. I only have one set left and after that I will not be selling them anymore.
    cheers

    US$16 postage for the ikasweb kit via USPS (first class) if anyone is interested, especially seeing Litetek are no longer stocking it :(

    Here's what I ended up getting. IKASINC had very good customer service actually, so that was a positive. The screw drivers seem pretty good, although I think the handles are a bit llighter weight than ideal.
