I have some craftsman screwdrivers and if I put them in a closed box the

Is there a way to permenantly clean off this odor?

For future reference, what brand of screwdrivers are of decent quality
and don't have smelly handles?

Have you looked at the yellow handled NAPA screwdrivers? They're
spendy but good. I can't speak to the odor issue. My tool boxes
generally don't stay closed for more than a couple days at a time.
