Hand tools are your best friends when it comes to building, repairing or DIY. But buying the right tool is not that easy. There are countless options - from cheap to premium, for beginners or professionals. So that you don't lose track, we have put together the most important tips for you.

1. What do you need the tool for?

Before you start, ask yourself: What exactly do I want to do with it? Tools for precise work - for example in electronics or model making - have to be different than those for rough work such as carpentry or screwing on a car. Also important: How often do you want to use the tool? For occasional work, a solid base is sufficient, while professionals should pay attention to maximum load-bearing capacity.

2. The material makes the difference

Robust materials are a must for tools. Types of steel such as chrome vanadium or stainless steel ensure that your tool can withstand the toughest use. It is particularly worth taking a close look at the material when it comes to hammers, pliers or wrenches. Tip: Handles with rubber or plastic coating not only make working more comfortable, but also increase safety because they prevent slipping.

3. Ergonomics: Comfort meets safety

It sounds banal, but a tool that doesn't fit well in your hand can be really annoying. Make sure that handles are ergonomically shaped and well balanced. This is not only more comfortable, but also reduces the risk of injury. Test whether the tool fits well in your hand - after all, you want to work safely and relaxed.

6. Versatility pays off

Sometimes one tool alone is not enough to get the job done. Sets, such as wrench or bit sets, are particularly useful because they offer you different sizes and functions. This gives you flexibility and saves space at the same time. Also consider whether you want tools with additional functions - this way you can do several jobs with just one tool.
