I wouldn’t even consider a return to old fashion screws these days for most of the things I’m using wood screws for. I’ve been using GRK cabinet screws, GRK general purpose screws, GRK construction screws and the hanger screws recommended by the hanger manufactures. Frankly it is like the best thing since sliced bread. Every screw has its use, even old fashion wood screws, but my go to screws are all of modern design.
