Screwdrivers with through shanks exposed to the end are priceless. Then its just a matter of cleaning the tip up now and then on the grinder. You can pick up a complete set of punches and chisels from places like harbor freight cheap. They may serve their purpose. I like scouring the flea market for the pre- ralph nader years, he effectively ruined everything from tools to my Corvair, the first whiner for the government to protect me. Anywho, older chisels and punches are darker uncolored metal, the rest are shinier and flouresant orange for safety! They are too soft, the older stuff is more brittle. They hold an edge longer. NEVER, hammer on a Klein screwdriver, they are the best, imo. Get another tool box. Vintage Bob [/QUOTE]
