Ebay unmarked Blackhawk Ratchet
« on: January 17, 2012, 01:48:38 PM »
I tried to send this seller a question but "due to the high volume of email this seller is receiving" , I was unable to. What I'm wondering is, doesn't that drive plug look kind of big relative to the head, like maybe it could be 1/2 inch drive instead of 3/8 drive?
Also, for anyone interested, the same seller has a brand new blackhawk pipe wrench with the sticker still on it.
What do you think?

Looks more like a 3/8"-drive in a 1/4" handle. The seller says the handle is only 5" long...

Yep, its a 3/8s head in a 1/4 drive handle. I bought one from him several months ago, and was very pleased with the transaction. He's upped his prices since then though.

I bought one from the same seller a year ago.  But mine is marked Blackhawk.  $10.49 plus $4 to ship.  The problem is the clip is too thin so the drive rocks.
