Title: SQUEEZE-WRENCH Ratchet Tool
Post by: lzenglish on May 08, 2011, 08:11:22 PM

I picked this up yesterday, along with some other tools. When I saw it, my first impression was "Another Gimmick Tool", that I have never seen before, so I thru it in my box of other tools I was buying. I believe it is of the 1980 vintage. Anyone have one, and if so, how do you like it? It looks very "HF" like to me, and maybe it is, but it is made in USA.

I've seen them and agree with your assesment of age, though I have no real basis for that. Seems I had tried one out some years ago, and aside from use as a nut runner, I didn't find much value in it.

The only basis I have for the age is a Popular Mechanics ad when I googled it.
