Title: Perfect Handle pipe wrench -Question
Post by: Lostmind on November 08, 2012, 02:40:49 PM

I found a 14" " Perfect Handle" pipe wrench for sale at an antique store.
I didn't buy it because it looks like a piece might be broken away on the back
side of the adjuster screw. It looks like metal should sorround the screw.
Any one have a photo to post?
This looks like it was used a lot , but still a decent wrench.
I didn't buy it , yet.Anybody have a ball park price range?

Thanks Papaw, I see I was correct. There is a piece broken off that surrounds the adjusting nut.
Probably used it as a hammer.
I'll let it be , someone else may want it.Although it is in better shape than the one in the photo
otherwise.
