I’ve got a set of 3 sizes that I bought new about 25 years ago. I think they may be available still. I don’t recall where I bought them though.

Vintage Made in USA Irwin perfect handle screwdriver. Those screwdrivers have history of been used in Jeep and Tanks tool kit. Hard to find in nice unused condition. 

Stamped: IRWIN-US of A.

I may have reproductions sold by Garret Wade or Lee Valley. 
AI says they were slowly phased out of production middle of the last century.

Yep, my Dad was  trucker that hauled Jeeps from South Bend to Baltimore during the war.  That screw driver was in every tool kit.
