Figured out I was using the wrong screwdriver bit for decades on old Pentax bodies

I was stripping tiny JIS screws on a 1970s Spotmatic for the third time this year when a buddy handed me a #2 JIS bit and said 'try this.' The screw came out smooth as butter with zero cam-out. How many of you finally bought JIS bits after fighting with Phillips?

So did you actually need a different bit or just a fresh one that fit better?

Figure a sharp bit is a sharp bit most of the time.
