Prying kit other than ifixit?

ifixit kits are expensive in my country so I want an alternative of it that is decent for opening laptops or other small things like external HDDs.
any suggestions?

for small tasks like that any cheap toolskit will be enough,

but in terms of quality I really cannot recommend Ifixit enough. Its just the leader in the market

Metal or plastic?

what do you mean?

If it is the material of the tools, both are fine.

if it is the material of the one that im prying at, it should pry both but i gonna pry most plastic cases

You can buy just iFixit's Jimmy tool without the rest of the toolkit for like $8 or someth ing. It's the best all-around tool for prying and the build quality is phenomenal. My first Pro Tech Toolkit worked on what is probably over 1000 devices.

ifixit kits here in my country are double the price of what they sell in US. Not worth it.

stores only sell kits, not individual tools.

just use whatever kit comes out from china, on shops like AliExpress

 

ifixit is basically that, they get stuff from an oem, apply a logo to it and resell it for 5 times or more
