I had a chance to visit my favorite flea market today. I got lucky and found a few wrenches, to wit:
Another Bonney heavy duty S-wrench with the Bonney seal on one side, and a letter on the other side. This time it was the letter C, which I did not already have. Now I have A, C, & D editions of this type of Bonney wrench. Still looking for a B wrench.
A 10 3/4-inch Flying Swallow DOE wrench. This wrench has a gunmetal finish on it, in addition to an oriental name. Flying Swallow, in Chinese, is Fei Yen, and is a symbol of Good Luck. In addition Zhao, an empress of the Han Dynasty was called Flying Swallow for her slender beauty renowned to this day. It's embossed "MADE IN CHINA" in great big letters on the back side.
An 8-inch crescent-style adjustable wrench made in Italy by a company named Rugol. This is about the only Italian tool, outside of a Fiat wrench, I have ever found.
The boss on one side says "Thin Pattern". Apparently, thinness matters in Italy.
Viva Italia!
A 6-inch Proto crescent-style adjustable, with Model 706-S Los Angeles stamped on the handle. I don't see that many Proto adjustables, and it was only $1.
