Adam Savage describes four unusual and useful tools he loves

@Wanderfound

a spokeshave is for shaving spokes. A screwdriver is not for screwing drives.

@LadyKatey

Er, actually, yes- an AB is for B-ing A, therefore a spokeshave is for shaving spokes, and a screwdriver is for driving screws.

Shouldn’t it be called a screwdrive then?

I wish to apologize to all concerned for starting this.

What I meant to say was that this is like calling a [traditional and time-honoured tool name] a [garbled and non-traditional tool name]. When that happens, somewhere an angel weeps.
