Question T-handle with removable handle??

Hi HUBBies,

I swear I used to own a T-handle bit driver where the handle could be disengaged from the driver, effectively breaking down in to two pieces which was slick for sticking in to a tool roll. The whole "t" shape just isn't ideal for rolling up. The handle had a slide asymmetry to it so it could slide in one direction and would get stuck or seat at the midpoint.

Now, I can't for the life of me find that tool again. The internet is flauting me per usual, and good luck searching for "t handle" in the forums. But if anyone has or knows anything about this mythical tool, I would be very grateful. I swear it was a CruzTools thing but I don't see it anywhere.. TIA!

SFL

I have similar set in 1/4, from Facom part nr. R.431ADP. The T handle and extensions are available separately.

MotionPro used to make a folding T-handle set (1/4" drive), and these days it appears Tusk still make the same thing:

It's just a sliding T-handle.

Available from everyone, everywhere.
