FWIW: I thought I remembered getting my set from Amazon, so I checked. Amazon still carries them - and the price is somewhat better than this eBay source if you have Prime or your order has a subtotal of >$25. (I find the latter is always pretty easy to manage if necessary. )

I've found that it's a good idea to check Amazon too if you find something in current production you want/need on eBay. For items in current production, Amazon is often a possible second source if the eBay vendor is out of stock. And sometimes Amazon is cheaper.
I wasn't really shopping for someone, just pointing out their availability.

i have a MAC #2 JIS.. "kind of a 1.5 Phillips!" as the Driver described it... Bought for use on Kubota Tractors and Mowers, at the time...I've been abusing it's superior design qualities for about 20 years now... it's about due for a new blade... still kicks butt on a Std. Phillips.
