Most every farm had at least one scythe so there had to be millions of wrenches made. Probably certain ones are rare.

These little wrenches retail for about 25 cents each around here.

Snath wrenches, not really rare.

Skylab,

Thanks for posting the ebay link.  I picked up one of these little guys at a yard sale last weekend and was about to post some pictures and ask what it was.  Saved some time.

I wonder if it would work if you signed off ePay Australia?

I just realized you were talking about the link to Photobucket in my signature! It does seem to be a bad link. I'll see about it right away.

"Rare," in eBay-speak, of course means "First ones I've seen."

I posted these pics of my snath wrenches on the old site. Still have them on photobucket.
The first two are the wrenches I have with no two exactly alike, all eligible for the under 4" club. I think I have only added one since I took these pictures.

The last two photos are of my salesman sample scythe handle with the snath and the attached wrench.
