I keep mine is a MAC tool box, all lined up.
I like to open the drawer periodically, take some out and adjust them, play with them, then put them back in their rows.

I have some others, a little Mossburg bicycle and two adjustables like in the second pic. I also have more 4" adjustables but these were the wrenches handy for the photo. I would love to get some smaller adjustables but have never seen them.

I never do that, no sir, not at all.

I do like the ignition pliers. From the right, Cman, Hinsdale,Williams, K-D, no name, Proto. The adjustable is a McKaig-Hatch.

Your Bahco looks unused.  Is it?

Really like this one!  Do you know how old it is?  It looks to be from a later period than mine, but earlier than the ugly "made in Spain" by Irega wrenches like the one pictured below.

(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/21EQ7UfO-fL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)

Did a little searching but can't find another like yours.

Must keep looking!!!!

I dug these out of my work box,   have some more but had work coming at me.  The crescent is stamped Crestoloy and painted Navy gray, the vise-grips is a 4w but is actually longer, Mossberg bicycle wrench was rusted solid when I found it, and the pipe wrench, (made in Germany).  Have a 2 inch crescent around someplace, probably on a key chain.

Mr,J.A.F.E.    If the three adj. wrenches want to join my four and under club they are more than welcome the one rule is that they have to reside here   LOL   bob w.

You didn't say it had to be USA, and I think this one has been on at least one boat ride. A bad picture, but I can't find any markings other than the owner marks.
