Another suggestion needed guys! The Ingco brand also comes with their cordless impact driver which also is reasonably priced .Please could you suggest whether to go for cordless over the corded impact wrench ?I like the versatility of carrying the tool with me on trips vs the corded type .please let me know ASAP

Please do not rush!! You will end up making the wrong decision.Better wait than sorry later on.
Please confirm the battery specs as well as torque specs of the cordless one.Modern machines have moved on to 18V-20V.

The snap grip multiple spanner tool is a big fail for tight situations
Yes I agree with you! I never bought them for tight situations,only mild uses as in when some bottle cap is jammed etc.

For tight situations I already have:

These:

My Utility Knives.
Uses:
These knives are designed as a multi-purpose cutting tool. They come as handy in most of my DIY projects. They are designed to be lightweight and easy to carry and use, and they are very commonly used in all of my projects where a tool is routinely needed to cut the marked lines, trim plastic or wood materials, or to cut tape, cord, ropes, cardboard, or other packaging material. I have used it to cut foot mats ,carpets and thick pieces of foam into desired shapes.



These plasticky ones are very economical with poor quality blades,which chip easily

Taparia UK-3 is of better quality. It comes with a retractable cutting blade which can lock into different positions depending on your type of use. The blade is very sharp.

this can be opened up here,and there are 2 more replaceable blades inside the compartment.When the blade becomes dull, it can be quickly reversed or switched for a new one. Spare or used blades are stored in the hollow handle . You just have to open this screw.
