I pulled this quote from another thread to start a new thread on &#;screwdrivers&#;. Pacifically Stanley 100 Plus screwdrivers.

In the very beginning, dad was instructing me on the proper way to use a screwdriver. (Boy, was that a mistake!) I don't remember what brand screwdriver I used to take the license plate off the car, It worked! Got mom in trouble with the law a bit later. This was around .


A little later in life, dad bought a nice set of Stanley 100 Plus screwdriver set that took the place of the wood handle screwdrivers he had left from the set he had. About the same time in the mid 's, I bought my first set of Craftsman tools to replace all of the misfit tools I had used since a early age and my first real set of good screwdrivers. Those Craftsman screwdriver have been replaces many times over the years with bigger sets and warranty replacements.

After dad passed, I go a hold of a couple of the last of the Stanley 100 Plus screwdrivers he had. Will say, they were starting to show their age. They are worn from lots of use in the 20 something years he used them. They been hammered on as chisels, used for prying, and who knows what else. I bought a set of Klein screwdrivers that I like very well, but have rubber handles. That don't work good when your hands are greasy and oily. Plus I like them for electrical work as intended. The Klein's look very much like the Stanley 100's, too. So I started looking at eBay and found an exact set as dad had. They are not cheap! So I bought a set of them. They will last the rest of my life for sure. Here's a couple of pictures of them.

EDIT: If you ever go to flea markets or garage sales, watch for these and buy them if they are in decent shape to use. I consider them as being one of the best screwdriver out there. I don't care what people say about Snapon or any other brand out there! Ken

In the very beginning, dad was instructing me on the proper way to use a screwdriver. (Boy, was that a mistake!) I don't remember what brand screwdriver I used to take the license plate off the car, It worked! Got mom in trouble with the law a bit later. This was around . Growing up at a early age I can remember my first screwdrivers I had as a kid. Most were from the local five and dime store. I remember buying a set of made in USA screwdrivers with plastic handles for about $8-9. I think there was six screwdrivers in that set. Dad had a set of wood handle ones he bought that most of them he worked with for a living. We dare not touch them back then. Along with those, we had a bunch of worn out Phillips tip and straight blade ones. The straight blade one some had been modified, most be me, in an attempt to bring back the tips on them. Learned early why you don't grind on a blade of a good screwdrivers. This was in the mid 's to early 's.A little later in life, dad bought a nice set of Stanley 100 Plus screwdriver set that took the place of the wood handle screwdrivers he had left from the set he had.

Third picture is the new one and one of the old ones I have that belong to my dad. Last picture is a new set of round blade Stanley 100's you can still get today.KenEDIT: If you ever go to flea markets or garage sales, watch for these and buy them if they are in decent shape to use.
