A screwdriver is a common tool used for tightening and loosening screws in objects. Screwdrivers usually come with two different styles, a straight head, which is just a single edged piece of metal, and a Phillip's head, which is an X-shaped tip. Screwdriver bits are also included with most modern power drills, as well as multitool devices.
