Bonney wrenches?
 

I have been buying these old wrenches at garage sales, and I am really
impressed with the quality.

Had a few amongst some tools that were stolen. The Bonney wrenches were
in the "go to" group. Real nice tools.

I have quite a few Bonney wrenches, and they are my personal
favorites. I have one set of tubing wrenches (3/8" up to 1 1/2" ) in
particular that are hard to beat. I dunno if Bonney is made yet but
its been many years since I have seen any in stores.

I think they are much better quality than Snap ON or Proto.

Wasn't Bonney the 'low priced' part of the Herbrand line? I haven't
seen Herbrand wrenches in maybe 40 years now, at one time they were the
mechanics favorite.

From what I remember as a kid, Bonney was top quality just like Snap
on is today.

I think Bonney Tools were made in Alliance Ohio, there seem's to be a
lot of them in this area at yard sales...Bob www.tracksoverhead.com

Used to sell Bonney, bought a few as I could afford the (pricey).
Excellent tools, good feel, on a par with old Snap-Ons.
