In 1973 i borrowed a screwdriver from a brand new Toyota tool kit. Today it still looks brand new. Been the best/ handiest ive owned. Used it today. Must give it back one day.

Andre, i reckon it is JIS, just grips in so well. Other part of it is rubber/ plastic bit that fits over handle. Has domed part for palm to push down and 3 bits that stick out , full leverage from fingers. Never ever seen another, totally ingenius invention.

Not the best pic to see for 100% that it is JIS but good enough to lean myself out of the window. That it is from a Toyota makes the leaning out comfortable enough.

I have a couple of those orange wheel chocks you mentioned.. Do yours fold into themselves so they are flat for easy storage?
