Magnet Pocket Tool Gotta have one handy

Thx for posting that snapmom, now I know more about when they were first made.

Glad to share, it's my favorite...

I see 2 offered on EB

1960 TMB kit, any tools with date mark are 1960, including case [which has only one clip]. All original tools, was probably a kit from early tech or school, factory stencil. Among the first KRA 275 kits with the TM70 ratchet. Last use of the Octa Grip driver.

I have this old S-O pick up magnet from an ignition tune up set and it has the earliest PT series stamp with a -7 number, see pic. It's not 7 inchs long so I'm wondering if it is the date code...'47. Any expert help would be great. PT series didn't last long.

That's great info...more than I've found so far. Now I'm thinking that there are very few full sets in existence. I have found that the underlined logo was changed in the late '70s...? It may have been a special set as some lettering is gold. I made a see-thru case as the color goes from amber...

I was thinking the dom would be in the '50 too...would love to see a catalog. Thx for the reply.

I'm thinking that these sets are pretty rare...or the guys that know about them are few and or dead...

I've come across a set of Blue Point NDA hex drivers and can't find anything online. Any help or discussion about them would be appreciated.
