    The best promotional pocket screwdrivers are made by Alexander. I think you need to get with MATCO and have them come out a pocket sized PRY DRIVER with the features you mentioned. I also think the MAC PN2C needs to have a 3 inch blade instead of the current 2 inch blade. Great video, Thanks for sharing!!!

    Clay--I was made aware of this item a few months ago (February-March) in a video CP the Tool Addict posted here on TH-cam. I elected to buy this piece at the time, as it functions as a mini prybar (I use it for electrical stuff). And yes, shame on MAC for not including a magnet at the top. If you encourage them through your dealer contact(s), they may consider adding one on a future version. I think that the clip is on the wrong side too, which was short-sighted of the engineers. A way around that, though, would be to use one of those plastic pocket pen holders; salesmen that carried several ballpoint pens used to keep one in their chest pocket to prevent ink stains. That should also minimize accidental stab wounds from the blade facing into your chest. Your dealer may be able to hook you up with one from MAC.

    I did that mod minus the magnet because I wrap my hand over it and magnet would dig in my hand but yes the blade will come out then just put it back it the other way really easy.

  • @Tenspound
    @Tenspound 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Wouldnt it poke a hole in your shirt if it was the other way under the same conditions? I don’t have them, idk how they feel in person. Seems that might be a new issue if they switch it on the curved one. Might need it to sit sideways so it won’t dig as much and won’t poke hole in your shirt. Or just use the straight one I guess.

    When I first started Electrical work, Every electrician used to have 3 or 4 of those pocket screwdrivers (flathead) in their tool box because the pocket size flat head was the absolutely perfect size for terminal block screws. But Nowadays all of the electrical tool companies (Klein, Greenlee, Ideal and the german brands) all make specialty "Terminating" screwdrivers for that . . . but back in the day, the pocket screwdriver was the best thing out there for terminal blocks.

    The magnet is sweet i don't use pocket screwdrivers with magnets. When I use to service trailers the magnet would catch the axle and then stay me in the chest. But it does look sweet and when I first seen cp the tool addict with those I notice the clip was on the wrong side also. But they still were really cool so I had to order mine online cause I don't have a mac dealer. Now everyone in my shop wants them.

    Hey Clay, I think the clip should be moved to one side so that the curve goes to one side or the other. Instead of it digging into your chest or curving out into space.

    More evidence that they do not have people in the design or engineering department that ever did any work with tools. They should at least have one or two guys such as yourself do an original review prior to mass producing the tool. Still inept at tool construction.
