Like the pouch and screwdriver sleeves.
Really like this tool pouch. Recently purchased new electrical tools and love this pouch for the job. Light and sturdy construction quality. Good belt loop that seems to be very sturdy for a good life.

Absolutely incredible!
Why did you pick this product vs others?: It is durable and perfectly convenient in every way. I am so glad I got this size too. Not too big not small at all. Loads of space in it for how much stuff I do have to carry. Strap is great. Build quality: Material or however it’s freakin woven, this cloth could just never in a million years become undone. There is no unbuilding perfection. Design: Middle patrician I use to separate SAE, and metric. Love this about it.

Does come with shoulder strap!
I got the 9 pocket 5240. The strap is not shown but it's literally the nicest shoulder strap on anything I've ever had on anything. I don't know why Klein doesn't show it, I almost passed this pouch up because I thought they were calling the handle a strap. Fully loaded it feels like nothing to carry because it's so well padded and wide. The pocket on the front looks useless, but it's deceptive, I got 2 empty tape cases filled with connectors and wire nuts, a 50 pack of 4" zip ties, and a spare loto tag in with ease. Ironically the only tool I have in there that isn't a great fit is my Klein crimpers. I don't know how but somehow they managed to design the perfect pouch to fit tools perfectly for other companies but not their own. I modified mine a little bit and put on two magnets, the rubber coated ones in the 43 mm from Flutesan. I can walk up to a machine or a panel and slap it right on the side and all my tools are at eye level! No more bending over to reach in my bag, and no more heavy bag digging into my shoulder blade. This is the best tool bag or pouch I have ever owned in my entire life.

Nice tool bag
I do handyman jobs to make a bit of extra money and was in the need of a tool bag that provides more convenient access for my tools. I can fit all of my basic tools in it, with different compartments and several small pockets to keep the tools organized. The shoulder strap makes it convenient when I am working and need ready access to the tools. If I am up a ladder, I will hook the strap onto the ladder, saving me from having to go up and down the ladder so much to retrieve or put away tools. Construction of the bag is quite sturdy. There are some negatives, but this is being a bit nit picky. I do feel that they cheaped out a bit on the shoulder strap snap hooks. They don't swivel at all, so I was constantly untwisting the strap so I could shoulder the bag. Rather annoying. I finally got some swivels at Home Depot to fix that issue. Swivel hooks should be standard. It would have also been nice if there was a hand carry handle, at least offered as an accessory. My wife made me up one, so I can quickly grab the bag and go, without messing with the shoulder strap. Also, I'm not sure that I like the tape strap, as I cannot easily get a roll of teflon tape onto/off of it. The thong style holder would be nicer in that respect. Having a measuring tape holder would be great as well. Overall, it is a good bag and quite handy. With some tweaks it could be even better.

Perfect Light Carry Solution
This puppy came in quick and hot to my doorstep. I connected both the handle and shoulder strap to this pouch when I got it right where I wanted it..in the heezy on my hizzy. That allows me to carry it either on the should or in paw depending on the sitch, or situation for you slower folk. The carry handle is perfect, you won't get a softer grip on a bag or pouch or even your wifes ****. I have to say when I read all the reviews, they really talked about the quality of the shoulder strap, blah, blah, blah. When I was putting it in my cart, I was thinking there's no way this dam strap could be that good. Come to find out I too am blown out of the water at the quality of the shoulder harness. What stands out the most about the shoulder strap is the huge cushion and the soft texture around this dog darn cushion. The cushion in no way shape or form be any cushier, or softer for those slower folk. It makes you wonder why these other shoulder straps are even in existence, where is the mfn padding?! And the nice thing about this shoulder strap is the rubberized and grippy cover that stays put on your shoulder even when you're swanging all around up in that piece. Go ham all you want, that strap ain't going no where. Get it and you'll love it.

It’s a Jobsite Essential
1680d Ballistic Weave: This isn't standard nylon. The 1680d weave is heavy-duty and incredibly resistant to punctures and tears. You can toss sharp screwdrivers and snips into these pockets for years without worrying about the bottom blowing out.

Good if you know your tasks
I use this as a residential electrician. It's great for my essential tools: linesman, dykes, strippers, needle nose, crimper, sharpie, and a few screwdrivers. It might need to be replaced yearly or so, but for $20 it's a good deal. The weight is a plus, had to go with a minimalist tool belt after the old husky rig started straining my back too much *UPDATE* The pouch is still going and it's been about a year. The main plier compartment has fallen apart a bit so my screwdriver now slides into the linesman compartment, but it's still totally useable

Been using this as a residential sparky for a while now and it’s perfect. Smaller size, but holds level, pliers, 4 screwdrivers, nippers, spare driver bits, tv/data tools, knife and extra driver bits perfectly. Chucked it on a Makita belt with a tape measure holder and it’s where I have my impact driver. This setup goes into 90% of my service calls and is enough to get me out of majority of them. Excellent build quality.

The 9 pocket is too big and the size below 6 is frankly pointless. The 6 size pocket is amazing. Used on two weekends on the trot up s ladder replacing emergency batteries and gear and I needed side cutters, the normal selection of big and small philips and big and small terminal screwdrivers plus my tester, electrical tape and ball nose pliers and it all fit nicely. Well made, smart decent tool pouch.
