12" Jamestown NY Crescent Wrench
« on: September 22, 2012, 10:34:05 PM »
I have the handle only. I hear they stopped making these wrenches in Jamestown in 1972? Anyway, it's not a Crestoloy, just a regular Crescent. It says Jamestown on it and has raised lettering. I'm having trouble finding parts for it... I'd like to rebuild it. Any suggestions?

I do see occasionally Crescent parts boxes put out by the Crescent Tool Co. on eBay.

I took a couple of pics... (SEE NEXT POST)

One side of wrench says: "12 IN." "DROPPED FORGED STEEL" "MADE IN U.S.A."

other side says: "MFD.BY CRESCENT TOOL CO. JAMESTOWN N.Y."

Sorry for the slow comeback. No. I don't have an extra.
