Snap-On What is it - maybe aviation related

[Boogerman]

Came in with SO screwdrivers from estate. Look like SO paint can opener to me, anybody know what really is?

Anyone know who the original manufacturer of this Dzus tool is?

 

[lotus_esprit]

I have one and I always assumed it was Snap On themselves.

 

[kbeefy]

I have one as well. I can't remember ever seeing one that was not Snap On.

Also handy for opening battery compartments on some devices when a nickel is just too pedestrian.

Odd, I don't see any picture shown in the OP's opening post yet subsequent responses somehow identify it. That aside, the Navy just gave us 12" straight slot screwdrivers. Occasionally would see one of these more pocket sized, actual proper, tools.
