A little sandpaper, steel wool, a spritz or two of vinegar and WD-40 or 3-n-1 oil and just like the tools you'll be as good as new.

Some of that sounds painful. The rest, just messy.

the little aluminum looking screwdriver appears to be an almost exact copy of a brass one my dad had when i was a kid (a nesting screwdriver).   It had two smaller screwdrivers inside.   This one appears to be missing its kids. 

 

Nice assortment of old tools.  You keep them in nice shape.  I not only have the brass nesting screw driver you talk about but I have a small hammer with tools nested in the handle too.  They are part of the kitchen tool drawer community.

Very cool...First time I recall seeing the hammer set complete. Yours appears in excellent condition.

It is in great shape and I think I only saw one other.  My father-in-law had one.  I like the out of the ordinary and buy these things just for fun.  They sure don't get much use.

 That would make a nice window breaker if you got off the road into some deep water.  They suggest you carry one of these.

The windshield is laminated so no for that but definitely the door glass for sure.

Gerald, they will work on Tempered glass, did you mean Safety Glass, (the laminated one)? I don't think they will on Safety Glass.
