Title: New to me tool: Thorsen open gear ratchet
Post by: bonneyman on May 06, 2016, 09:52:19 AM

Figured some of you gents might enjoy my latest acquisition. Thorsen 1/2" open gear rat. The chrome is so nice on this tool, much nicer than was advertized. Cost me $20 plus shipping. Definitely worth it.

I have the exact same ratchet, it must have come in a pawn shop bulk tool buy. I started counting ratchets the other day and quit at 100.

Sure looks like it hasn't  seen much use. I would have jumped on it for the price you payed. On second thought that's about $26.00 Canadian, but still a good deal.

Yeah, I bought it as a user, but it is in too nice a shape to use. I'll need to find another decent condition one to wrench with.
