Jeff,

Yes,   It has big, little & phillips which I use for flange tightening. 
  I used the handles
at a right angle.   This made the leverage greater.   Seemed easier on 
the wrist than
a regular screwdriver.

I'm looking at a Gerber which has the spring open handles and the jaws 
that pop out
of the end.   No need to unwrap the pliers.  The boast is one hand 
operation.

What do you use?

Joel
