A fastener which includes a recess that includes a plurality of alternating lobes and recesses, where each of the flutes and lobes is twisted or angled. The fastener can be driven using a conventional multi-lobular driver. Alternatively, a driver which also has angled or twisted flutes and lobes can be used to engage the recess and drive the fastener. A punch pin includes a head that has a plurality of alternating lobes and recesses that are twisted or angled. The head of the punch pin is configured to punch the recess into the head of the fastener.
