Title: Craftsman Screwdriver
Post by: fliffy42 on June 19, 2011, 06:24:32 PM
Looking for some Craftsman Screwdrivers. I dont know the age. Made in USA. The two I have are makerd WF with numbers 41593 & 41594 on them. Clear handles with red & blue. The handle are kind of tapered toward the back and I like the feel in my hands. Check the boxes and see if you have any you might want to part with. THANKS!

I believe those were made in the 80’s… Those are what I have in my truck tool box...

Like this, Cliff?

This one doesn't have a number, just "Forged WF", "Craftsman" and "Vanadium"

I don't see a taper, either. But it is clear with red and blue.

thanks for looking but thats not one. here are a couple of picture. The ones I am looking for look like the bottom one in the picture. They are both the same size drivers but you can see the handles on the ones I am looking for larger and more curved/rounded. The shafts are also round as opposed to square. Keep your eyes open for me guys and gals. Thanks!

In the early 80's  Sears called these Professional screwdrivers.  Along with the larger handles,  the tips were slightly roughened to better grip screws.  I have a #2 Phillips that is my "go-to"  for tough screws.   In the late 90's or early 00's,  they brought out a set with similar handles in black.  I always felt that they were a cheap copy.  I'd like to complete a set of the clear ones & have been known to buy a box of junk at a tag sale just to get one of them.
