title not aimed at the single guys  here ;)

i was lucky enough to get this little lot below this morning,first decent purchase of the year.
any idea if there is a way to date them? the big one is mint,the others not far away,even has drill point adapters and drills. i cant stop playin with them.not bad for a tenner.

I consider myself lucky to find Yankees with paint still on the handle, let alone the name tags.  Extra bits are always good, you realize this may put you in line for another *you suck* award? 

Ten Bucks!?!?  Man, nice find.  Love those things.

10 Pounds! About $16 US, still a great buy.
Those are for working, Benjy, not playing! Wherever you might use a cordless drill, try those first, no battery to look for and charge up!

If you are interested in dating them, I can give a few hints.  North Bros. created Yankee screwdrivers, usually brass with chrome plate.  During WWII, they were steel and painted black.  Some time after WWII, Stanley bought them out and eventually they were just Stanley Yankees.   There was a recall of some sort for awhile, and the spring was disabled on some, that were brought in.  The spring fed shank is kinda dangerous if you're not ready for it.  Since it was Stanley they made tools in the UK too, so it will depend on what is stamped on the barrel of your screwdrivers.   I have a set, and they get used.  Great tools, great price.

The Spiralux may not be all that old, from another forum:

"Spiralux which was bought by Spear & Jackson which comes under the umbrella of Neill Tools, Sheffield, England..."

All are a nice find tho :)
