Robertson is amazing but I wish my Home Depot also sold Torx. Our deck and construction screws are all Robertson.

- mr-debil 4y agoRobertson is an upgrade from Phillips for sure, but it's not even in the same league as Torx. I've laid down many decks using Robertson and Torx. Robertson bits or heads strip fairly easy. I've used the same Torx bit on multiple decks, where I'd probably go through 5-10 Robertson bits per deck.
- Waterluvian 4y agoI think the only thing Robertson really has over Torx is the 60 or so years it preexisted the other. Probably couldn’t mass manufacture the Torx shape in the 1800s. But these days I’m not sure if Robertson has any advantages.
