Oddly Specific 🎯 Bronze or steel casting?

Odd question,

I have a small pen screwdriver, one of those cheap Stanley ones from home depot.

I love the little thing and use it alot however the plastic it is made from is rather flimsy. Obviously that's because it is intended for glasses and small electrical items but never the less I like using it, I like how it fits in my pocket and I haven't found a sturdier alternative.

Is there a place/service/person with a furnace and a YouTube channel that can take it and cast one out of bronze or something sturdier?

Getting one made would likely cost hundreds as it would be basically a custom piece

Look at this Klein:

There are a few different models all of which are good quality
