Title: Small screwdriver
Post by: p_toad on July 09, 2018, 12:12:53 PM

Anyone have an idea who made this?   My dad had one with a brass handle with two smaller screwdrivers inside.   This appears to be aluminum and the smaller ones are missing in action.  :cry:

I had some of those at one time. it was several screwdrivers of varied sized all nested into a hammer handle. You unscrewed the handle and it was the largest driver. It was the first gimmicky tool I ever had. a real pos. wasn't good at anything really. Don't recall where it disappeared to.

Found some listed as "nested screwdriver" and i've seen the hammer model myself.   Seems to me we used that tiniest one on our glasses when i was a kid.

I imagine lots of folks made those.  Years back, the ones I saw were labeled as German-made.
