Astonishing. It's near impossible to buy proper Phillips screwdriver here


I don't know where you buy your tools but it's not so. Most of the sheds
stock Philips and any decent tool shop will have a large variety.

Even Screwfix:-

And certainly all the electronics suppliers like RS components.

Pozidriv, I've been told, can be far more difficult in the US.
