Title: Want to buy or trade Blue point Combo stubby wrenches
Post by: Northwoods on December 20, 2020, 07:19:48 PM

Working on the Blue point stubby combo wrenches with the forged on--not stamped in--logo. 
I need # 120 ----3/8" and #140----7/16"
Give me a price or let me know what you would like to trade.  I have a couple truckloads of all kinds of old tools.
But obviously I need some more....

Could you please post up a picture of the aforementioned TYPE of wrench in question?   Don't think I know the difference between stamped/forged!   Thanks.......Cranky

Sure, Dan.  Check out Figures 113 and 114 here.  The ones I seek have forged in lettering which stands proud.
The others are stamped in.  Seems that BP started out with forged lettering--then switched to stamped lettering--and then returned to the original forged lettering.  Go figure.  Had something to do with the war, I would guess, but....
