16-oz. curved claw hammer (smooth head, NOT waffled)This is the perfect all-purpose hammer. It's not too heavy, so it won't strain your wrist, yet it's heavy enough so you won't be under-gunned.25-foot Stanley FatMax Tape MeasureI love this tape measure because it's fat — an inch wide. The width allows you to read the numbers more easily, and the tape doesn't bend when you pull it out past a few feet. 10-inch Channellock Tongue-and-Groove PliersThese adjustable pliers fit around various-size plumbing fittings and nuts. Plus, because of their shape, they're easy to control. Retractable Utility Knife (with blade storage in handle)You will use this knife for cutting everything from carpet to vinyl tiles to drywall, and for stripping wires. The blade is also easy to replace and stores conveniently in the handle.Ratcheting Screwdriver (with multiple bits)The multiple bits change out easily, depending on whether you need a small or large Phillips or a slotted head. The ratcheting action allows you to keep steady pressure on the head of the screw while simply twisting the handle in place.
