Somewhere on here we had a thread about those. There is also a model that has a solid type lock on the back, rather than the one with loop. Give you something else to watch for. Nice find, by the way.

 Nice looking wrench. That stamping is pristine.

Curious.
How did you come about such a sweet wrench?

Old tool swap meet in Culver City, Ca.   One of the sellers knows what I like so he snagged it at 4:30 AM (while I was still sleeping) from another seller and put it in the truck until I showed up.  I am sure he turned a profit for his troubles, but he didn't jack the price up too much.  It is nice to have friends!!!

They made 2 sizes and 2 styles, 6 3/8 long and 8 1/2 long in each style. Nice find.

I had posted the one with the solid type lock vs loop.
