I've come across a German manufacturer by the name of "Wiha" that currently offers a five-piece set with all the key traits of my Brookstone example: posi-drive shank, overall handle shape, Germany, etched tips on the slotted drivers, five piece.

The assumption is Bookstone contracted mfgr of their screwdrivers to Wiha and applied their name, so a bit of variation is to be expected. Today's product is a bit fancier than mine, but hey it's been over 40 years. Gonna call this 'solved' unless something more compelling shows up someday.

Don't anthropomorphize your handplanes. They hate it when you do that. - OldTools Archive -
