This !! Although I have a truckload of tools, there is one Philips screwdriver I have for more than 25 years that I keep under lock and key and I magnetize and demagnetize it with that all the time. In general I don't like magnetized tools because they pick up iron dust and shaves from my metal working lathe but for small screws they are perfect.
Those combination screwdrivers have very little magnetism anywhere else except the point, safe to use anywhere.

Left my magnetized Phillips head at a job I did, I wasn`t about to drive back to get it.

I’ve learned over the years to do a quick walk around before any contractor or repair person leaves my home to check for wayward tools. I’ve been amazed at how many folks forget tools, supplies, etc. Time pressure get to everyone.

Just do what I do. Take a magnet and wipe it down the blade of an ordinary screwdriver a few times. That usually magnetises it enough to hold a screw.

It's old school, but it works!
