Abstract:
A tool having a relatively ductile working end for engaging workpieces and a relatively hard non-working portion for driving the tool is disclosed, and a process for making same. The tool is formed with the material in a first state, such as by cold-working, and then only the non-working portion is heat treated to a second state. The working end is thus maintained in the ductile state while the non-working portion is hardened, thus imparting different materials performance characteristics to working end and non-working portion.

Claim (Index 24):
The method of  claim 21 , wherein the step of forming the tool includes forming the tool of a steel alloy, and wherein the step of heat treating includes:\n heating the stem portion to a first temperature; quenching the stem portion; heating the stem portion to a second temperature below the first temperature; and cooling the stem portion.
