I love my collector ratchets. All kinds. Big or small; male or female; I love them all.
But what is my favorite? A generic pre-war Plomb 5449 1/2"
What about you? I know it is kinda like asking about your favorite child or nephew/niece,but think about it. What is your fav?
Right now it has been a 1/4 dr Proto I picked up at the Alexander Steam Show last year. I am using it a lot on the Project 39-1/2 motorcycle where the small size helps get in tight places.
My favorite is gotta be my grandpas 71n 1/2" snap on ratchet. Probably only worth 20 bucks to me it's priceless.
Although I have plenty to choose from in my user box, obviously I like round head S-K ratchets but my absolute favorite is my stubby 3/8" drive Cornwell. I misplaced it in a car for a few years and bought the stubby Snap-on to replace it but I never liked it very much. I was overjoyed when it finally turned up.

I use the Craftsman most of the time, but I also like the Proto!!
