There are a lot of wrenches I have come across and passed by because I don't know if anyone here values them, or I don't know if they have resale value (ebay or swap meet sales). Is it worth saving these and trying to come up with complete or near complete sets?
Some of these wrenches are Dunlap, Sears and Companion brands - all Sears brands. The Dunlap wrenches are this type...
The Sears wrenches are Japan made, nice quality chrome wrenches, open end or combo like this one...
The Companion wrenches (I haven't looked closely at them) appear to be of similar quality to the "Sears" brand...
Another brand of wrenches made nearby in Buffalo are easy to find locally - Barcalo. Are there certain styles that have any value? I'll skip photos because most everyone knows the different styles and there are so many different styles. Which of these is worth chasing after? Also, I think there are Tomahawk and Arrow wrenches that are Barcalo made.
And lastly - McKaig-Hatch wrenches. These seem to be nicely made with raised lettters, not too bulky for modern use...
So, again, my interest is to try to gather sets. Not to make a lot of money but at least recover my expenses and have the satisfaction of collecting a set and getting it into the hands of someone who will appreciate and possibly use them.
Thanks
Al
