Screwdriver search

Morning all.

Bit of an odd request, but does anyone know where I can find screwdrivers like this one? I've had it for well over 20 years and it is by far the most used in my toolbox - much more comfortable than any of the hideous modern rubberised ergo-grip abominations. There are some Draper ones in solid colours that look similar, but they're not as comfortable to use. No matter what I put into Google I can't find them anywhere, and all it says on the handle is 'Made in W Germany', which gives you some idea of how old it must be! I have one other with a flat blade that I remember my father buying in the late 1970s, so I am preparing for the fact that they may simply not exist any more.

Any help much appreciated!

Something like this?

I can probably find more for you, just searched with 'Amber Screwdriver"

Oh found a job lot of similar ones, starting price £4.99

My Dad used to have one of those!

I used to think they were made from cough sweets..

Spangles.

Thanks guys - I guess it looks as though they don't make them any more, which is a shame because they are way better than anything I've owned since. Makes you wonder what we knew about screwdriver design 30 years ago that we don't know today.

To make them with Sheffield steel and not have them made for 2p in China.

My favourite recipe based on a screwdriver.... two parts vodka, four parts orange juice, and one part Galliano.

They used to come with the shaft slightly protruding the plastic handle.

Ideal when a little love tap was required

You would have had stanley (england) and steadfast but unsure ofthe made in germany brand

You can make a mould and then use resin - Or, Lotus (yes Lotus!) can make to order (cost circa $3,800 per unit {Unit = 100 items}).

Randomly just found this page!!

I have one!

Also have the 'stubby' version.

Look what I found in a 200 year old hardware shop in Poole yesterday! Probably part of their original stock judging by the layer of dust that was on it.
