A better image of the sample in the Wallace Collection, London, ca. 1580-1600; the screwdriver is missing from the tip of the spanner.

This plain but 'untouched' all-iron combined powder horn and swiveling wheellock spanner, probably Austria or South Tyrol, ca. 1550-60, was sold as a lot together with a little brass flask at Bonhams London, 23 July 2008, for 500 GBP.
The screwdriver is still present though damaged. m |

Thank you so much, Marcus,
 This is also Italian, ca. 1600, finely pierced and notably made overall! Best, Michael |
