Thanks for the quick scan. But due to the difficulty in
seeing the black tip clearly against the dark background,
they look identical to my untrained eyes. In fact, I see
a sharper point with the black tip (the cross point)
compared to the silver tip (the Phillips). I am still
wondering, is there any REAL difference? My set of screw
drivers, even though it has an American company name on it,
does say "Made in Japan"; and there is no identification of
"Phillips" or "cross-point" anywhere, just #0, #1, etc. So
now I am wondering if they are actually cross-point instead
of Phillips -- but then, who cares if the tip fits the screw?
