What makes you think Barcalo made the Craftsmans like these, Larry?

Personally, I think it's unlikely, but am interested in your reasons...

I am too.  I've noticed several manufacturers who use that "look."

KAL, Barcalo, even some S-K kind of look like clones.

I have a bunch of Barcalo Buffalo wrenches. I sold a set of Craftsman wrenches in the same box.  Larry

I agree there is a very similar Craftsman set, but, to the best of my knowledge, Barcalo never made anything for Craftsman.

There is fairly compelling evidence that the set was, in fact, made by Moore Drop Forgings - the known manufacturer of the later, common "raised-panel" Craftsman wrenches...
