    Sony recently stopped offering the best crosspoint screwdrivers in the world.
    Japanese metric version screwdrivers which fit every electronic screw exactly. There is no other screwdriver like it.

    I found the company that made them for Sony:

    900 Series | Megadora | Screwdrivers | Hand Tools | VESSEL TOOLS


    These are metric screwdrivers and made for japanese electronics metric screw heads but oddly enough fit american screws better than any screwdriver made.

    If you work on electronics for a living you cannot do without these tools.
    I recommend the crosspoint 900 P.1 X 75
    and the crosspoint 900 P.2 X 100.

    You will not regret it.

    I have a set of Wiha Phillips and flathead screwdrivers which I bought 20 years ago after I finished my apprenticeship as an electrician. Never looked back. Those are my premium screwdrivers and the smallest one I have I can easily work on wrist watch screws and other very small screws.
    I just found out that digikey even sells Wiha tools.

    Wiha and Knipex for electric and electronic tools and Gedore for ratchets and other mechanical tools or Snap-On.

    Ahh... nostalgia is overwhelming me.
