        Description: |  
| The double jaws have slightly different size openings, and one shide has the jaws at a slight angle.  The openings in the handle provide several fixed sizes of wrench capacity.  The shank is square, fitting in a square opening in the handle, and has a groove with a matching "finger" inside the handle to further stabilize it. |
