I'll admit, I've kept ONE intentionally, and only one (we discussed it in PM if you recall) ; a proto and plomb marked 704 I just can't let go of.

I found the other guy yesterday when I was going on a dig for the giveaway gift.  My first thought was to allow a pick of the adjustable collection (I don't have a large aj. collection because I've not posted pictures), but then I had one of those moments where I hoard.  You're welcome to the Crescent 4" I found yesterday on my dig - unknown vintage but older and a keeper in my book.  It's in my hand if you'd like a pic via email.

I hereby come forth as saying I will NOT be into collecting 4" and under - Please hold me publicly accountable for that statement :)

I only have 3 four inch adjustables :(
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

I confess to having a small collection myself.
All my taste is in my tools.

I guess Bob didn't see the picture section, he hasn't made any comments on that post. Those are only some of my real small ones, I still have several around 4 inches including about 8 crescent style 4 inchers.

Guys:

Two wheels of 4-inch (or less) wrenches I found in the basement. The wooden-handled mainspring wrench in the bottom wheel is one of the first wrenches in my collection.

It was a Google "4 inch adjustable wrench" search that led me to the original Papaw's site.
