Irwin: Before going over to the dark side:

[Outlawmws]

Picked this up for a quarter yesterday; today I went looking for any makers marks before putting it away:

I was a little shocked to see who the maker was!

I was also amused by the "US of A" stamp, you don't often see the "of" in there!

That's cool....never seen something marked USofA

That's the first screwdriver I've ever seen made that way. Even really old ones I've seen.

Irwin was a highly-respected brand for many decades before it was high-jacked by Rubbermaid to be the name brand for their off-shored tools flogged under previously highly-regarded names...

I have a couple of them. they are actually quite comfortable. In cross section they are an oval so you can get a good grip and get good torque. The smooth surface is less desirable if oily, but I like em.
