Wood Handled Mini Screwdriver Set of 6

Three Phillips (#00, #000, #0000) and three slotted (1/16″, 5/64″, 3/32″) for fixing watches, eyeglasses and other items. Wood handle carved in Maine. Steel blades with black oxide finish forged in Massachusetts. Hand assembled in Michigan.

The moment of the screwdriver’s conception is hard to pinpoint, but there are mentions of an implement with a pear-shaped handle, shaft and head used in medieval combat and armor, as well as sketches vaguely resembling the modern tool in Leonardo Da Vinci’s notebooks. In 1934, Henry F. Phillips created the cruciform screwdriver head, which gained popularity on car assembly lines and is now known as the Phillips head screwdriver.

This mini screwdriver set goes beyond the tool shed to tighten up eyeglasses and service watches and other small items. The small screwdriver heads are also fit for fixing up toys that may have loose screws, making sure playtime is safe.

The round-shanked screwdriver blades are hardened and tempered to a high level of material hardness that will not chip or slip. Nickel-plated ferrules add further durability to protect against wear and tear and ensure that the screwdriver shaft and handle remain consolidated. The Birch handles are carved and coated to create a secure but comfortable grip.
