We been making these knobs for a while now
...and actually found ourselves using them more often than we thought to check scope ring/mount cross bolts or swap a scope in the field or at the range when no Torque Wrench or other tools are on hand:

clever!
Clever indeed!
Another option would be a hex socket to accept standard bits.
How much$$ ? Had I known sometging like that was available in canada, I wouldn't have bought them from glades.
Gah! You post this one day after I loctite the bolt knob onto my new small firing pin bolt!
How about a 1/2" magnetic insert that fits the end of the bolt handle, with the hex socket built into the insert - best of BOTH worlds!!!Originally Posted by tiriaq
Fit a knife in there somewhere, and the Swiss Army may come calling...
My goal in life is to become the kind of man my dog thinks I am...
All fine and dandy till you torque down too hard on a nut/bolt and snap the handle off!
( . Y . ) :D
The purpose is for a backup or emergency use when the correct wrench isn't on hand...most of us likely have been in that situation once or twiceAs well , most of these knobs are going on custom actions with 1 piece bolt/handles or at least a welded interface...on a high quality action the cross bolts on a ring would break or strip long before anything else fails. No different than using a regular wrench when you don't have a torque wrench.

I've got one on my 6xc, you couldn't find a set of rings or mount that wouldn't strip/shatter before the handle let go.
That's what witness marks and jotting down number of rotations are for.
