Joseph Marples Cabinet Screwdriver, Pozi 3

An oval profile, beech-handled screwdriver with precision-ground, tempered steel blade for a secure grip and lasting edge. Made by Joseph Marples Ltd of Sheffield, who have specialised in the production of fine joiners hand tools since 1840. Some of their methods may have changed, many have not, but their commitment to quality both in manufacturing and materials remains undimmed, as evinced by the identical antique tools that can still be found at fairs, markets, workshops and in sheds.
