Thought this was interesting

[Magnum440d100]

Was away from home for work last week and needed a screwdriver. Picked up a craftsman set for a song, and it had this 4 way. Got home and compared it to my old one I’ve had since I was a kid (~8?). I carried that thing EVERYWHERE. It’s amazing I didn’t lose it.

Pointless post. Just thought it interesting seeing the “same” tool, but 25 years apart....

I kept one on my keys for years. Never remember using it ever, so I took it off.

I have a few laying around.

Cool post!

I have a couple of those around here somewhere. Have never found an actual use for them, but hate to throw them away.

I’ve have one of those as well. Don’t remember the last time I used it or even seen it. Doesn’t take up a lot of room anyway.

Got one on my keychain... fun fact about these. Buy em off the register container? USA made. Get one in a screwdriver set? Made in China. I’ve always carried it but never needed it.

I have used mine now and then. The small blade can be used (note that I do not say "fits") on a #2 Phillips head screw if not putting too much torque on it.

It also helps remove a bottle cap.

I keep one in my pocket at work and use it all the time. I work as a maintenance mechanic for a large corporation and get paged to different areas to fix equipment. We have multiple tool boxes spread around the facility so this 4 way screwdriver comes in handy just open up panels and doors to access the issue.
