"JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) screwdrivers are definitely different from the standard Phillips head type, although the differences in actual performance can vary depending on the fastener in question.

I would still recommend having one of these screwdrivers in your tool collection if you work on Japanese products. Even if the screw heads on your current machine are in perfect shape, using a JIS cross-head screwdriver on them can help reduce damage when the time comes for repair."
