Hi All

I have been cleaning out my parents old barn and going to auctions buying tools to resell. I just found out today that there is such a thing as vintage wrenches and I know I must have seen a lot of them. How do you know a wrench is vintage or old? I have seen some weird looking wrenches and some I think I tossed in scrap metal not knowing that they might be something someone would want. I don't want to waste any more!

Thanks,
Tom
