Here's an example of a half-round handle or "no roll" screwdriver, so-called because when you put it down, it doesn't roll off your workbench and underneath something where you can't reach it, causing you to bump your head standing up, cursing, and making your wife holler down the basement to see if you're okay.
Also has a sort of two-tone dove-tail jointed ferrule, which I have never seen before - until looking at the jealousy-inducing Winchester ferrules upthread.
Marked only "MADE CHAMPION INC." on the cabinet type (implying electrical work...) shank.
Could it be Champion as in Spark Plug related?
I like that. Much better than the costly new ratcheting plastic snap on one, which rolled off the bench and stabbed me in the foot..!
Hope not a silly question, (not seen one like this before) but was yours originally made with a flat on the handle? It's not just like that because a chunk of wood has split away on one side? If the flat area doesn't follow the grain and was obviously cut, then it must have been made like it.
