Title: Interesting Vlchek and Indestro items
Post by: dowdstools on June 16, 2013, 01:55:17 PM

I recently acquired this interesting Vlchek socket wrench. I really like the adjustment, and thought it seemed unusual.

While I have had the Indestro socket sets before, this is the first double socket set I have run across. These may be common as dirt, but I don't recall having ever seen one before.

That makes two of them I have now seen. I like the decal on yours.

Mine doesn't any markings on the bottom. Probably later production.

I once saw a double set like that. I want to say the metal case was red. Can't remember, though. Wasn't complete, and I didn't get it.
