Who makes

[HeelSpur]

a 12" monkey wrench that has a pipe cutting wheel attached to it?

It has writing on it but can't make it out, " Vise something something"
and under that I can make out "Masterpiece".

Camera is acting up, must have hit a button somewhere.

Here it is, its much clearer in the pic than with the naked eye.

This one-

Yes, definitely a Bonney, called "The Masterpiece," patented in 1902-3 I believe, and pretty sought after.  Bonney sold so many of those they had an unidentified plant in NY making them exclusively under contract.  Possibly the largest single impetus for moving to Allentown, building a bigger plant and transitioning into the mechanics tool market in 1909.  I've been searching for one of those in the wild for a couple years............still no luck.  Very nice find!!

Is this one in to rough of shape for your needs? I talked the guy down from 10 to 5 because of the body is broke on both sides. There are 2 screws that can be taken out but the heads are in rough shape, may have to be drilled to remove them.

Needs?  Do any of us "need" these tools...............  I'd always be interested in one of those heelspur!

That's a very nice tool, Spur.
