Well I was going to send this to Don but the personal message thing isn't working for me.  But some of you will like this anyway.
Don,  I found this several weeks ago and thought you might get a kick out of seeing it. (Unless you already have seen one - which is certainly possible).
Barcalo with "SECONDS" stamp.

The SECONDS cause looks to me to be the roughness of the back side.

I am trying a second time to collect another nice set of these.  I'll have to be more careful - I didn't see the seconds stamp til I got home, and another one I bought had grind marks.  Lucky they were real cheap (way less than a buck).

Al,
Thanks for thinking of me. I have run across several Barcalo 2nds and even found a Power-Kraft 2nd made by Barcalo. I ended up putting many of my flat panel wrenches on my Barcalo board but if you let me know what sizes you are looking for I'll take a look.

Well, I was hoping to show you something you hadn't seen before, but like I said I'm not surprised you have a few of them!  Thanks for the offer - if and when I get close to having a full set I may contact you to check.  I suspect the little wrench will be the hardest to find.  I think it was 5/16 - 3/8?
