So not sure how many other people have ordered multiple screw drivers but I have between wave 2 and wave 10. And one thing I have noticed and maybe tolerances got changed but wave 2 all those have very light ratchet but some of the later ones that I got for gifts or ordered for a couple others that liked them but don't do internet buying have gotten a little stiffer threw out the waves granted not a lot but enough probably at least a doubling. They will probably break in but was just wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

Jeez how many screwdrivers did you order?

But anyways that's the thing about tolerances, it's a range of acceptability.

I don't know about the different waves, but yes, I ordered 2 screwdrivers at the same time, one black and one "original orange".

The back one has a noticeably smoother ratchet. It's a shame because I much preferer the feel of the black one.
