The tips on those tend to round off after a while. Only way to get it to bite again is to grind down the tip a little bit. You need to get the tempered steel shanks.

I'm a firm believer of "You get what you pay for".

I like good ole fasioned L shaped keys myself. I just have a 3 piece set of dynamite hex drivers and 2 sets of Allen keys. One standard, one metric. The ones that have the funny shaped ends so you can get at screws at an angle... super super handy let me tell ya.

I have them and they just sit there.
The larger ones come in handy around the house but they arent even close to being a quality tool.

From HF I recommend the digital calipers, and the air presurised spray canister. I have a few of their cheap metal brief cases of different sizes for my radios and battery chargers.
