Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure provides a method, apparatus, and system to identify screwdrivers by characteristics without necessitating viewing the tips and/or shaft of the screwdrivers. The screwdriver handles can include a shaped structure within the handle corresponding to the identification of the characteristic. In some embodiments, the handle can be co-extruded so that an internal structure indicating the screwdriver characteristics can be extruded concurrently with the outside portion of the screwdriver handle, where the outside portion can be further shaped to form various gripping surfaces. At least a portion of the handle can be at least partially translucent to allow viewing of the internal structure through the handle for identification. The internal structure may also be viewed from one or both ends of the handle. The size or color of the internal structure can also identify characteristics of the screwdriver, such as the tip size, length, and other characteristics.
