Wouldn't a tiangular screwdriver be the best?

It would get a good grip while being unlikely to destroy the screw head.

This is all why real men use duct tape. (or, more correctly, duck tape... but it feels wrong spelling it that way...)

Either as long as you've got a cordless driver!

If a screw falls out, I prefer to bash it with a rock!

the TORX is best for screwing, but the flathead is more versatile. It can be used on philiphead screws in cases of emergencies, it can pick locks, and it doubles as a sculpting tool. I have also used it for countless other things over the years, that i have forgotten.

You also failed to mention its usefulness for impulse stabbings.

I dont know because even when you dont have a flat head on you, you could always pull out the old swiss army knife and workinto a flathead screw just as easy of course theres the chance of chipping your blade but you get the point.

I prefer flat heads. I do mechanic work for a living and philips heads eventually strip the head (WHICH REALLY FUCKING SUCKS!). Flat heads being as simple as they are always work great.

I'm making a study of how many crumbs are under the cushions of my couch.

BTW, if the screw is slotted and you're holding a phillips-head screwdriver in your hand (or vice versa), you are pretty much SOL.

//edit: 13 if you count the 1965 release of "psychadellic metallic gray" that got pulled back.. to my knowledge only sixteen boxes was shipped.
