I bought one of these a few weeks ago, it has become my favorite go-to for 1/2" drive. I also got the 3/8" version which is just as good.

Same here... with the same ratchets. For $19.99, they just cannot be beat!

I *think* it's 45 or so... but I might be wrong (too lazy to go out in the cold and check).

Fifty somthing. I counted and posted awhile back.
Used mine today. Also used the 3/8 long handle, putting big lag bolts in a fence. That extra leverage comes in handy.

I think you're right. I saw 2 sites saying it has 45 teeth, one of which was Amazon.com. Here's another auction which says it has 24 teeth, but I think the description is wrong.

The 24 tooth ratchet is the more traditional design that has been out many years before the big dawg. I have one... and it's clunky. I don't particularly enjoy using it.

It looks like nobody bought one yet. Hmm...

Won second place in a dodgeball tournament today so I put my $37 in winnings towards one. We'll see how it is. I love my long handle 3/8 snap on ratchet so I think I'll dig this one too.

I bought the 3/8's and the 1/2 a while back a bit cheaper. Very nice ratchets. Having them made me get one of the comfort grips. A 5250PG. Why do they call it that?
The Big dawgs feel a lot better in my hands.

Wanna trade? I have a new big dawg that I dont care for.
I finally won one of these on ebay (5450PBL long handle) for $23 total, including shipping. I thought it was a sweet deal. I counted 52 teeth. I wish the handle were thicker. I bought it because of all the good reviews on this forum. I didn't really need it, but at the price I'm very happy with it. I like the black industrial finish.

I already have a big dawg. But, if you hang out on ebay, you're bound to find one on the cheap.

I ordered one, couldn't pass it up for the price.
