Bonney Adjustable - one of my favs.
« on: May 24, 2015, 04:11:14 PM »
I love this little 5 1/2" adjustable.  Interesting the triangle on the dynamic??  I don't see that wrench in any of the triangle tools era cats??  Owner's mark?

A wild guess would be that it is a replacement jaw. Is there a triangle mark on the body of the wrench.

A person who could really read human minds would be privileged to gaze on some correct imitations of chaos.

Nope, that's the only place I see it.  Good call though..........I'm betting you're right.

The Triangle Tool Era began in 1967. And those style of adjustable's fell out of favor long before that.

Maybe it's an owners mark?

It's not a Triangle era tool.  It is much earlier.

Do you have any of the early Bonney catalogs?  We're probably talking pre-1940's.
