As discussed in the for sale section, red screwdrivers are getting insane. I am very seriously thinking of repopping them and have been on a quest for 2 years to find someone to do the handles. I have found a source for the small reversible blades. Here are the things I would like to throw out for discussion or comment. The small screw drivers will be as original with the exception of "made in west Germany' cast onto the handle. I can forgo this, or have it hot stamped on in small black or white lettering. The handles will be eye exact to the originals. I will have to get $50 a piece for them as the start up costs are not small. Once I get my money out, i will do the big ones and white lettered as original. Give me your feedback please, as you guys are more exacting then the other model owners using the reds.

50 clams for a screwdriver? No thank you, but some will probably want two or three.
I guess you missed the ones on Ebay for $325 the pair. They of course didn't sell, but it sure screwed peoples heads up. $50 on a red handled screw driver is probably not as silly as you infer.
Only comment is to make the "Made in China" font really small.
They will be made in the USA not China. Could be China if I do 10,000 pieces. I am at the 100 level.
In that case make the font really large and put an exclamation mark at the end.
I will chip in with one small screwdriver.
