Very nice condition, works well, no binds or skips…real clean. Brass handle shaft. Great looking turned/ribbed wood handle. Handles solid, no cracks, no wobbling with some wear to the finish. Stamped (personalized) on handle M Keller. Steel pin through the handles end, as seen in pictures. Slotted tip is smooth and straight. All around, this is a great antique screwdriver, a real beauty!
