A different "Yankee", yea right.
« on: June 10, 2014, 05:16:00 PM »
Got these two in one package and noticed the loop on the end of one that I have never seen before so I snagged them. I gotta start carrying my loupe again because that loop was homemade, didn't pick up on the 2nd hole til I got home. Oh well, one appears to be earlier than the other, are the smaller letters the early ones?

Different letter stamp sizes for sure. I wonder what that second little hole is for?

I think I have a Phillips version of that. I'll see if I can get a photo. No hole that I remember.

Someone drilled the hole cockeyed so they re-done it. Its easy to see the drill marks with a loupe.

I have an AERO ratcheting driver, and have pics of it apart so you all can see how this one works. Phillips tip on one side, standard tip on the other.
