O.K., I know how to magnetize a screwdriver. My boss showed me over 50 years ago when car batteries were still 6 volts. But, how do you de-magnetize a screwdriver. There is nothing more frustrating than having fine filings (metal hair) constantly being picked up by my favorite tools. BTW, I don't know how it got magnetized to begin with. Not strong enough to pick up a small screw, but strong enough to be a nuisance.
Thanks,
