And if I’m going to rep Sandvik I might as well give these guys a shout out too. I mean….it’s in the same garage.

You can never have enough screwdrivers, and my favorites are the 600-series green-handled Bahcos.
The big boy 689 is my favorite. It's less of a screwdriver and more of a blunt weapon. Unfortunately I use it far too little due to it's massive size (15mm wide, 2mm thick flat tip, 35,5cm/14" long).
I'm pretty sure I have more of the tiny flat head green ones floating around somewhere. They're very common here in Iceland, and I make a point of getting every one of those I come across.

The orange ones (and one black handle) are Sandvik screwdrivers. Good stuff, but not my preferred handle.

The bottom left hand screwdrivers with red handles are no-name "Made in sweden" drop forged screwdrivers. No clue who made those, but they're good.

And red-handled Geilo screwdrivers are super common over here in Iceland. I only have a couple of oddball ones, since I rarely make a point of buying them.
Hey Jaycobie!

Do you still have the no-name screwdrivers with red handles? I think the bottom one looks alot like the screwdrivers from a Swedish company named "Ferrator".

There is extremely little info on this company.

Here are som pictures of a Ferrator screwdriver my brother has. The handle seems to have been cut at some point as the text only says "Made in Swed".
It's visible on the second pic but a little difficult to read because of the angle.

The 1/2 and 9/16 sizes are for Swedish Whitworth using metric A/F head sized nuts and bolts hence the dual markings.

Interesting neat ident forging that I can’t help with.
