It's badged as "Titan" in this example, but I've seen other names on the basic mechanism. I've also seen some Mac models that looked like a similar mechanism.

Anyone know the OEM? (It's made in Taiwan.)

I've seen a bunch of different variations, can't pin it down to any one manufacturer.

I bought one of these from Aircraft Tool Supply, been excellent so far. The packaging for mine simply said made in Taiwan, perhaps they're just assembled there from various suppliers parts.

The handle looks the same as this one by Chih-Tai Y&S Company Ltd.

Reminds me exactly of one a buddy of mine got off the ****-on truck about 20 years ago for 80 dollars. His was pink (and yes we gave him a huge ration of **** about it), but he thought it was the best tool in the world. I'm sure back then it was an original snap-on item because it took a really long time to see another one but it was not a far stretch from the old push twist screw drivers in my opinion. In fact I liked those more because all you had to do was push up and it would do the twisting for you.

Just had a look at the set of pliers I also bought at the same time, also sold as Titan, but these were marked as made in India. Perhaps Titan get tools made all over the world and then have have their name put on them, but with the country of manufacture of the maker.
