Nice batch of tools. I saw one of those Klein hacksaws at Friday's estate sale in Martinez, CA. I think it was made in Europe somewhere. Nice Powr-Kraft tootsie roll ratchet. I like the Klein speed drivers as well.

The hacksaw was manufactured in Sweden.  I've never heard those Wright ratchets called Tootsie roll ratchets.  I like it. I picked up another Klein speed driver today.  I didn't have one and now I have three.

Here is a 3/8" drive Wright tootsie roll ratchet I found at an estate sale on Friday.
