hi guys, I have several of the number 9 auto wrenches. I'm curios about the numbers on them and what they mean.
one reads "32
one reads "7"  and looks like 100?
one reads "17"  and "28"
I know have more of these floating around.
But, I'm curious about the meaning of the numbers
cheers, bird

Bird,

If they were made by vlchek, they are probably forging die identification marks, as is found on most of their wrenches. Get us a picture of what you are seeing, and we will probably able to tell for sure.
