This is a Johnson & Tainter push drill. Which, I believe, is the earliest patent for a push drill.

It was patented on Oct 5, 1869 by George Tainter and William Johnson of Watertown, MA (#95483).

Drill is sold with 1 drill bit.

Made of Brass, the drill is 9 ½" long tip to tip.

Stamped on the top of the drill is "JOHNSON & TAINTER'S PAT. OCT. 5 '69".
