You've been told incorrectly!.. those junk driving bits are all
over here.. They make lots of screw fasteners with that kind of
head in it.


Pozidriv is HUGELY superior. That's why Phillips made it !


IIRC it was a joint development between Phillips and the American Screw
Company. But GKN in the UK had the rights to it for some of the world and
promoted it rather more - perhaps because Phillips screws hadn't the same
market penetration over here.
