Wera’s 2019 Advent calendar just became available for purchasing at KC Tool. Their past years’ calendars included unique assortments of Wera hand tools, and this year’s is no different.
I ordered one quite promptly, and can offer hands-on feedback once it arrives.
The price this year is $73.95, and if you use coupon code TOOLGUYD4LIFE, you save 10%, dropping the price to $66.56. Shipping is free on $50+ orders.
So, what do you get in this year’s kit?
In terms of collectibles, you get an exclusive T-handle corkscrew and a stubby bottle opener, which Wera says are the first-ever versions of these implements.
You also get a T-handle Rapidaptor screwdriver bit holder, a stubby magnetic bit holder, a selection of 1/4″ hex power and insert screwdriver bits, a socket adapter, and 3 sizes of 1/4″ drive metric sockets.
The T-handle screwdriver handle with Rapidaptor bit holder is the star of the show, but the stubby bit holder also caught my attention.
For context, a similar Wera T-handle Rapidaptor screwdriver retails for ~$44 on Amazon or $49.90 via KC Tool after coupon.
All of the tools, except for the stubby bottle opener and T-handle corkscrew, store nicely in the included soft storage case.

Why? Our friends at KC Tool offered to send over a review sample, but I decided to purchase one (since past years’ calendar tool kits ended up being used a lot), and they’ve agreed to instead supply one of this year’s calendars for ToolGuyd giveaway.
I am a big fan of Wera hand tools, and the unique tools and assortments featured in their calendars have been surprisingly handy.
Wera’s Advent calendars are a very nice introduction to the brand. If you already own their tools, the kit contents will often be complementary and useful.
