Price	$10

The Screwdriver is a melee weapon featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. The screwdriver uses a stabbing motion and can be used to stab victims or damage vehicles. All hardware stores sell the screwdrivers for $10. The screwdriver appears in one mission The Fastest Boat. It is held by one worker inside the Boatyard, at the switch where Tommy releases the boat.

Despite its small size and seemingly harmless appearance, the Screwdriver is a fairly good melee weapon. It can kill pedestrians in 1-3 stabs and rarely attracts a wanted level. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is the only GTA game to feature the screwdriver as a useable weapon.

In Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, a screwdriver is used to hotwire cars.

• Screwdriver can be found as a prop in GTA IV, but is unusable as a weapon in the game.
