Antique metal drills were used by hand, before the advent of electricity. The drills were sometimes adorned with precious metals or types of animal bones and ivory, which are now banned. Old drills made from metal were often painted red or left in their natural state. The metal is not shiny like stainless steel has an aged silver patina. Some antique hand drills have manufacturer marks and can be dated. Some antique hand drills are worth a lot of money because of their rarity or the materials used to adorn them.
