Dick, The absolute best screwdrivers are made by Wiha. For a #1 Phillips look at Item 3110 at this link: http://www.wihatools.com/300seri/311serie.htm. Or splurge a bit and buy one of their many sets. Also look at the "precision" series which are made for more delicate work. Also available on Amazon.
