A recent find that I would like to know the approximate year(s) of production. It has 800-2 stamped on the top handle bracket. Many thanks.

No idea.  You might check for catalogs in Internet Archive.

Thanks. I have searched the web with no joy yet.

Thank you. It looks as if it is a #32, but the pictures are of earlier models. I'll search deeper to see if I can find when mine was manufactured.

not sure if I can upload all the catalog images.
I guess I need to shoot these to Mark at ITCL if that one page was all you were able to find.
I am only posting "blow torch" here. NOT "fire pot".
