        Description: |  
| The patent is an improvement on pat. no. 339,813. The improvement is for firmer connections between the handle portions, and a firmer connection of the adjusting screw to the handle. 
The wrench using these patents is marked "BARNES TOOL CO // PAT 1886 IMPR 1892" A very different wrench design bears the same markings. Some of these variations are shown in entries in "45spaces/vintage-wrenches." |
