So true.

I was very disappointed a few years ago when I bought a set of supposedly professional-grade "gunsmithing" screwdrivers from Brownells and, when they arrived, I discovered that the tips aren't hollow ground. I should have sent them back, but I didn't. They hang on a pegboard and have never been used on a firearm (or anything else). For years, 90% of my gunsmithing screwdriver needs were answered by one of those reversable, multi-bit combo thingies:



Two sizes of straight blade, both hollow ground.

Last year I picked up a pair of multi-bit tools from Remington in their end-of-year sale. Same idea -- all the straight screwdrivers have hollow-ground tips.
