This is apparently extremely common in Canada, but I thought it was an April Fool's screwdriver when I first saw this picture.


Hey European & American friends who use tools and do building, repairs, DIY – are Robertson screws common in your area?

Are Robertson screwdrivers common in European toolboxes?
