Found: in the FIL's tools

[KootzDragon]

Never seen shifting spanners with a handle like this
The small one, cant see any marks as to its make/origin...it is well worn in the jaws...this tool was obviously trusted upon many times
The large one has seen minimal use, and has markings of Buffalo NY USA 8 Inch No 78 Westcott E Keystone Mfg...
Right now they have a place of honour, hanging up in front of the morning view window of the shed.
Cheers fellas

Looks like the small one has had a hard life !
I remember my dad grinding the fixed jaw back to square on his mover. Which was fine until the jaw broke off.

Nice wrenches!
Could have used one of those the other day removing the magneto on a 2-cylinder John Deere.

I think Deere likes high angle adjustable wrenches. I need one like that to relieve the belt tension on my Deere Mower deck too. I may make one if I can't find something.

Edit - just found this: I ordered the 11" version.

I have an ancient version of that wrench hanging in my barn. I bought it years ago from a pawn shop. The only time I ever used it was on fuel fittings inside Boeing 737 fuel tanks. We called this sort of wrench a "Ford wrench".
