It's C. TH. Rom & Co.

Boom! Hahaha! That was fast. I was pretty close. I’ll be spending my break looking up this company. Thank you.

I’d sure like to know the maker to be able to add to the OP’s list, but can’t quite make out the name. Any help would be appreciated (and a surprise). Here’s the best I can approximate:

G.Th.Rom & Co ?? [illegible]

Maybe this Danish tool museum could help https://bricksite.com/hoevlehusetengelsk/about

Here I was struggling to make out the letters without seeing you had it pretty much figured out. Oh well, Google fun.

You did better than I did. I was stuck.

No idea where I got these.

Not the first time I’ve seen this pairing but…..

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.

I may have missed it, but for Nordic (cold) countries shouldn't there be some tools in here like snow shovels, ice fishing drills, etc?

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.

part Of my collection, very hard to find in the South Pacific. Wrenches and chisels are far more common , distributed by Primus for over 80 years .

Hell if I know.

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.

I have a collection of Bahco socket sets.
In order not to collect "everything"..., I have focused on the red boxes with red inlay. Not completely sure of the vintage, but 60's and 70's I believe.

Very Christmas-y - in July!

Seriously, well done. Not my era or my brand, but that many matching, complete or near-complete socket wrench sets of any brand in metal boxes is always cool to see. And, I actually do like the color combination of the red boxes and the green handles.
