No help with your questions, but that is very cool. Love the elegance of the design. Thanks for sharing.

That's a pretty cool design, wish I could get Torx and hex head drivers the same way!!

I have a pair just like that that was made my crescent - it says 4 in 1 - so screw driver, t handle, hammer, and I can't figure out the 4th function.

I'll try to get a pic to post up. Won't be by the house they're at till the weekend.

Just adding more information to this old thread.

Some remaining metallic green paint.

Looks to me kinda like a Tuffy made by the Swallow Airplane Co. long ago.
