Hammer with screwdrivers

[Nhoj]

A year or so ago I was given this hammer.

It is fairly light and could stand to have more mass. When you unscrew the handle though you get a surprise

A fairly large flat head driver. And then out of that comes another surprise.
A philips driver. And then there are more russian doll like screwdrivers that keep coming out.

And soon you have a nice big family of screw drivers. This hammer is not ideal for workshop use, but I think it is good for camping as you get almost full size drivers and a hammer for tent stakes. The smallest driver (a philips) is also a good size for electronics, fishing reels, and other things you might have camping.

Thanks Lynn I didn't know what they were called

I've seen a couple of those here but never painted this way. I think it was made by a company beginning with G or C. Let me work my google-fu a bit.

It is actually not painted but has something over it that looks like a heat shrink coating.

Found it. It's a GAM hammer.

My mum's had one of those for as long as I can remember, it lives in a drawer in the kitchen waiting to be useful. The hammer's got a pointy side rather than the claw though.

It comes in handy quite a bit.

It's a neat idea.

It's actually one of the few cheap tools that isn't too bad

my thoughts exactly 

it's a pretty neat looking tool tho, like a Psychedelic Matryoshka Hammer

I've often seen these near the register at the hardware store, they're a pretty cool idea. I've only ever found them with a pastel paint/vinyl/whatever coating on them though, I'll have to keep an eye out for a plain one.

My mum's had one of those for as long as I can remember,

My folks also have one, it was made of brass.  It has to be pushing 60 years old now.  Too funny!

Ooh these things are pretty enduring design then!

the hammer head might be brass - it's that sort of colour and fairly badly dinged up.
