I like the 12 volt drill for small jobs, and use it the most. I use 14.4 volt units for drilling and driving.
For hard going, my angle grinder and recuperating saw - use 54 volt batteries.

It was manufactured by JLS of Newark (hadn't heard of them before today), and a patent date of April 1903. It looks like April 1 on this light imprint, but pictures of others online show April 14.

Pictures of my Great-Nephew, my Great-Grandsons and the knifes I gave them just for being born so dad-gummed cute. Yeah, they're all Rough Rider small fixed blades. I told the parents to keep them and give the knife to them when they feel the boys are old enough to have them. I'll probably be dead and gone by that time but it's fun to think about.

My Great-Nephew Bryson Kayde Nayman, now a year and a half old.

Anybody know the functions of the large end of the handle? Looks kind of like a cap-lifter, but I don’t think that’s what it is.

Ditto on the hole at the end. I suspect there is a functionality there, as well.

It’s a multi-tool of some sort.
