Nope, just loosening tight/rusted screws. The tips on the flat blade

It's unfortunate the quality of Craftsman tools keeps degrading. Like
I said, the large flat blade I have has a square shaft and I sometimes
put an open end wrench on it to increase the torque. Never had a
problem, but this one is probably 20 yrs old. Thanks for the
feedback. I was considering buying a new set. Nevermind.

eh, they're still the best deal going. I trade 'em in every couple years

sometimes they'll be out of the one that I had and I'll get a free
"upgrade" to a nicer one got a polished 1/2" drive ratchet that way
once.
