I picked up an old screwdriver today and was wondering if anyone can tell me who made it or an approximate year. I don't have a picture yet, but can try to get one posted tomorrow.
It is a flathead screwdriver with two piece wooden handles similar to the scales on a folding knife. The handles are riveted to the full length metal tang with two rivets.
There is an approximately one inch section of the shaft right where the handle starts that is shaped like a hexagon - presumably for turning with a wrench.
The only markings on the tool are the words "Steel Warranted Germany" stamped in a rounded box on one face of the hexagon.
I know there's not much to go on without a picture, but does this sound familiar to anyone? I tried Google and found a couple similar pictures, but no info on a manufacturer.
