Screwdriver set

[Aunt Phil]

Nothing really special, hollow wood handle with a cardboard liner, solid steel connection to the changeable blades with a thumbscrew lock.
Absolutely no stamping or lettering on either wood or steel.
Probably a hardware or dime store tool.

Somebody used it around paint once, and somebody used masking tape to tighten the handle threads.

Odd thing is the end of the blade holder has a male thread about 1/8 pipe size about 1/4" long.
Blades remaining inside when the humidity finally allowed me to unscrew it, a flat screwdriver blade that is sharpened like a wood chisel, #1 Philips and a screw drill that probably doesn't belong to this set.

Looks like I need to dig into the bin I've tossed stuff I need to get around to a little deeper.

I wonder if that is one of the ones that had a wing nut on the end that tightened a set of jaws that held the tools in place that has been modified with the thumb screw lock after the tip/wing nut was broken or lost?

They are called tool handles.  They typically came with 8 tools, but sometimes more.  The screwdriver/chisel thing is a chisel.  Other tools that could have been included were brad awls, a saw, screwdrivers, a gouge, and gimlets (your screw drill).  I am probably forgetting a few.   The maker or patent information is often stamped on the ferrule.

That's unusual.
  I haven't seen this pattern and I've seen a lot of tool handles.
The chisel and tack puller bits are nearly always in place. Gimlets are fairly common too. 
Other tools, not as much.
Guess not many people used these three.

I agree with wvtools. It is a multi-tool. I have had these with the different tools inside - gimlets, tack pullers, flat head screwdriver bits, awls, etc.
