    Default Unknown British 1917 dated tool

    Hi Guys, I was given this tool by a friend a few years ago and I still don't know what it is for?

    It is just over 4 inches long and made of steel.

    Clearly it has a couple of different sized screwdriver points to it.

    Maker marked "JBB & Co. Ltd 1917"

    Thanks.

    Cheers, Ade.

    Looks like an armourers tool for removing safety caps off things like shell and mortar bombs before detonator priming.
