MetMo Driver

The MetMo Driver gives a classic ratchet screwdriver a modern twist. The unique, precision engineered high-torque driver has been designed to "bring an icon of engineering into the 21st-century". Based on a design that was first patented in 1891, the German-made Weltrekord was a 1950s ratchet screwdriver that has since become a collector´s item. British tool manufacturer MetMo has now reimagined it, using modern day materials and manufacturing techniques.

The Driver features a machined hard-anodized aluminum body, a stainless steel chuck and fold-down torque lever, plus various brass components. It weighs 320g, delivers a mighty 76 Nm (56 lb-ft) of torque, and its magnetic socket accepts all third-party quarter-inch (6.3 mm) bits. The end result is a compact device that is both a powerful and versatile tool and amazingly fun to fiddle with. watch the video below
