I feel like Rip Van Winkle today. Never underestimate the possibility of the etherspace swallowing you whole. Hand Tools anyone?

Here's a prize I rescued from a pile of rusty junk. It obviously needs some TLC. I'd like to know how old it is. Any guesses? I suspect it's nothing very exotic. It had two cylindrical ring wedges (which I've somehow misplaced) embedded in the remains of the handle. The little depression behind the head has some kind of magnet embedded in there, to hold the nail securely for setting.
