Title: Pawn shop finds.
Post by: Ken W. on June 17, 2011, 10:18:59 PM
I found this Diamond Tool and Horseshoe Co. Bicycle wrench at a pawn shop today. I've never seen one this big and in this condition before.15 " wrench must go to a pretty big bike. I also got this Snap On  fx936 flex head 3/8" ratchet there too.It was missing the head release button.I got it replaced on the Snap On truck on the way home.

I've always called these "Ford wrenches." I've got a bunch of them, mostly around 10".  But they made them bigger still.  Last summer, I found one at a garage sale that is 18" long -- like yours, it's a Diamond Tool and Horseshoe Co.  Mines marked with a bunch of letters that might identify what industry used it.  I'll get the markings and post them when I get home.
