I was looking for information about Barnett Forge (makers of one of my recently acquired Button pliers) and I found this site:

http://www.multi-tool.org/vintagewrenches

They have adjustables, alligators, monkey wrenches and more.

Check through the rest, too.  There's multi-tool pliers, OSS escape tools, and more than I had imagined.

I have never seen any of those before! I have led such a sheltered life. Cool stuff.

Another thing to watch for. Some of those are pretty cool.

Gads!!!
Just my opinion, but I think Cattaraugus made the best factory made folding cutlery the word has ever known. There are others. NY Knife and early Case Bros etc.
  But Cattaraugus is right at the pinnacle, to me. 
And a wrench knife??
Me want, me want!!

They do show up in Bus Haury's auctions often.

Nice ones Bus!
Especially the bone handled pliers. I can spot an elegantly ground blade at a dead run. :)
   Who made it?
