Bought myself a nice new handbag this morning  :angel:
And a bit of rust (hoping its British army rust  ;) )



Another nice haul Tony.  :cheers:

over 80 years old, for about 10€ each...

Confirmed vintage?  I ask with all due respect.  Be aware, there are newer versions of these screwdrivers available.

These screwdrivers were what inspired me to the joke- they were found in a wooden box, afaik in the leftovers of an old shop.
I bought a couple of them for a ridiculously low price, only had to oil them and they've become one of my favourite tools!
As soon as I'm home from Japan I'll tell the full story !
