References:

The following information is from:

• C. DREW catalogues No. 34 & 36, both published in the 1920s

This type of tool was evidently discontinued before catalogue No. 37 was published in 1947.

Box Chisels:

"Used for prying and opening boxes."

Caveat:

It is assumed in the listings presented below, that when tools have corresponding descriptions in different C. DREW catalogues, that they will also have the same dimensions and weights. This assumption may not always be correct.
