I picked this up with other Yankee style drivers and it measures about 2'.
Had to fix the button but it may need a better fix, the guy I bought it from said people would pick it up and twist the handle and the button would slide under the sleeve.
Haven't been able to get the bit out either, not sure why I may need to spend more than a few seconds to see why.
Not sure how much cleaning I want to do to it. I will repaint the handle.

That's the longest I've seen. Young carpenters today don't know what those are.
Young carpenters don't know alot of things.

I have a set of Yankees, but, the OP's is longer than the largest one I have. I think that one would drive a screw in totally with one pump!

I remeasured it and its pretty much 2' exactly. I also got so other large ones with it. Its the weight of a little league bat.
I'm not sure how strong the spring is, feel a little week. I have not got the bit out to see if its like a Stanley.

I've been sorting my Yankee and other spiral ratchet screwdrivers and measured my 131A, the longest Yankee, and it is 25" extended, without a bit in the chuck.
