Okay, I'm going to be open minded here. I love tools and am a sucker to get what I want. So, I need to justify this to my wife. Is there anyone that can share with me what makes this bit set worth the price for it versus $10? Seriously.... I could charge $1,000,000,000,000 for the most awesome widget in the world in a free market and assume if people have enough they can pay it worth it or not. Bring me to the dark side - what advantage is this versus a set (or 10 as the case may be) of similar bits at big box stores?

exuzmwaLook, you need this. Let me tell you why. 1.) Hand tools are forever. So it might seem like a lot to spend now, but 200 years from now it will probably still work just fine. And 124/200, well that works out to less than a dollar per year. Totally worth it.
2.) Machined titanium. EDC enthusiasts are legally bound to own at least 10 unnecessary chunks of machined titanium, regardless of purpose.
3.) I think the bits are also made of titanium. Titanium is a terrible material to make bits out of, it is way to soft and more expensive than just using hardened steel. But, this also means you must purchase them. See point 2 for clarification.
4.) Waterproof pouch. Titanium is extremely corrosion resistant, and I don't think you would normally leave your expensive drivers out in the rain, but.... Actually I'm lost, I really cant be sure why this matters.
5.) That picture makes it look like the top bit can double as a fidget spinner.
I rest my case.
