    iFixIt has some pretty comprehensive sets… I probably use 5-10% of the bits… But thats also kind of the point, right? You go for them when you run into a “what the fuck is this shit” kind of fastener, and then you probably won’t use it again for another few years.

    I would recommend getting some longer torx bits that can go in a drill / impact gun, since those are the more common “odd” fasteners you run into, and the short ones for screwdrivers dont give you a lot to work with if you chuck them in a drill

      Second on iFixit. They do come at a premium as they’re a bit pricier, but my brother bought me a kit in middle school and I’ve been using it ever since (around a decade) - as a daily driver (I use screwdrivers a LOT). Only have broken a few of the bits and they’re very good at warrantying them if you do.

      The only fastener I’ve ever run into that I didn’t have in my kit is a security pentagon bit. They’ve got everything else imaginable!

    Since everyone isn’t catching this:

    I live in Europe.

    That means no Harbor Freight, Home Depot, Lowe’s, etc

    The ones with holes are commonly called security bits. More comprehensive sets are available with all kinds of unusual bits, some having more than the one pictured.

    These sets aren’t that common in your regular home center or hardware store, but they should be easy to find online.
