Buhl wrench
« on: December 07, 2015, 06:52:32 PM »
Small Buhl wrench about 5 inches long, no size markings at all but measures up about 7/16th X 5/8th. The only markings are the letters BS over 72s over the letter R. Did Buhl make British Standard sized wrenches?  When I found this wrench it came with a Made in England wrench with a snail logo on it (which I've found out is for Thomas Smith & Sons), and a small Triumph motorcycle wrench.

The BS most likley stands for Buhl Sons Company
I think that the number is 725 not 72S which along with the B is an industry standard size 725B 7/16 x 9/16 openings.
A person who could really read human minds would be privileged to gaze on some correct imitations of chaos.
