What is this hand tool?
Got this tool with a bunch of other tools. It has some markings related to machine screws. Any help will be much appreciated.

That is a handle for the tap bits in a tap and die set. Pretty common and very useful tools, here are a bunch on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=tap+and+die+set&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

Is that an affiliate link? In the Community forum?
I guess what I am asking is: Is that link there to purely to answer a question? Or are you being compensated, even in some very small way, by traffic you send to that company via links of this kind?

Nope, not at all. That's just a straight normal link to amazon. Go there externally and type in "tap and die set" and see what link you end up with - I assume it will be the same.

Yeah. I guess it does. Just going to their front door, and asking their search bar for, "tap and die set", I get that same string: "ref=nb_sb_noss_1"
I apologize for being so paranoid.

Even gives you the sizes of taps it can handle on the handle ;)
