I bought a set of four, which is all there are, from Chevy Duty and I think
they were around $15.00, plus shipping.

I got a set of Clutch-head driver bits at a Black and
Decker store close out for about $0.35 a piece, they
were just sitting there in one of the closeout bins.
This was a while back when there were getting ready to
merge with another company.
