Title: Craftsman Ratchet ???
Post by: Bad 31 on February 18, 2017, 07:51:34 PM

I've never seen one of these but I now have one. Any idea what they were made for? AA didn't have any info that I could find. It is a 3/8" drive. TYIA.

Combination speed handle and ratchet. Nice find they usually bring good money $100 or more.

They are often left in the bottom of a mechanic's ratchet drawer, I think because they didn't really work as advertised. Nevertheless, they do sell quite well in today's old tool market.

That's pretty cool. Never seen one before. Should work great with a long extension and socket for "speeding" in fasteners.
