Reid’s Patent archimedean screwdriver

Description

Reid’s patent archimedean screwdriver.  This one’s in excellent condition, with little wear to the nickel plating on the shaft.  Two-part rosewood pad is in excellent condition, save for a small crack on the underside (visible in the photos).  The handle is in very good shape as well.  Both parts of the clip are present.  This takes standard square-shaft auger bits.  I particularly like the graceful spirals on the shaft.
