If you work on cars, either as a hobby or to pay the bills, you’ll appreciate a set of Zyklop ratchets from Wera. Their unique rotating-mass design allows you to easily spin the socket up to three times more quickly (according to the manufacturer) than a standard ratchet.

Although tackling bolts is the Zyklop’s primary function, it can also be used as a reversible screwdriver when fitted with one of a number of different bits.

Its swivelling-ratchet design allows it to function at a variety of angles, which is especially handy in cramped areas.

Wera makes Zyklop ratchet sets from 18-43 pieces with prices beginning in the US $80 range for the basic set through amazon.com. The 43-piece set costs about US $240.
