Yankee push drills

[whats wrong with you all]

So after being inspired by British Red's thread a few weeks ago about his, I'm looking to get a Yankee screwdriver

Or at least, a spiral ratchet screwdriver, as I'd prefer to get one that can take hex bits without needing the adapter bought separately!

I've found this one on amazon that seems to fit the bill, but does anyone have any other suggestions for brands/models that they know are good quality?

Cheers!

Go for the Yankee...

I seriously doubt anything else you'd find would match the build quality and durability of a Yankee

+ 1 to the above. Don't forget to lubricate the spiral.

My brother owned a one man band kitchen fitting company and used to buy Yankees by the dozen. Still kept using them after battery screwdrivers became cheap enough to use as he could fit kitchens quicker using a Yankee.
He tried several different brands but nothing was as good as a proper "Yankee" make

Any of you know where I can get them? (Plus a hex key adapter)

Cheap at car boots - but plenty on e-bay (including the adapters)
