Anyone ever see one of these?

I could have sworn I had one, but it's not showing on my inventory.

Odd. A link opens for me, but not one that shows a "Red Devil" wrench...

Was it, by any chance, one of these?

It's listed as S&H - Red Devil - 15/16" x 1"

Does the size fraction on it look like the picture (orientation, horizontal dividing line)?

There is only one other wrench maker I know of that stamped fractions in just that way......

It's packed away in a box somewhere. If I remember I'll look for it on Thursday when I go to the barn.
