Quick update...so I purchased the long pattern non ratcheting gearwrenches...THEY ARE GOING TO BE RETURNED the machining on these wrenches is literally disgusting. Offsets at different angles, the broached surface drive at off angles on some of them. Some of the jaws look like they were cut...

Agreed :thumbup: it doesn't take much increase in length to feel a difference in the power you can apply to a fastener. That's why it matters to me.

Yeah man speaking of goofy the wera joker...then again maybe a lot of wera hand tools for that matter. I just can't get over the look of that wrench :headshake

If only you knew who you were talking to :D Anyway, one of the purposes of this is that I hope wright will eventually offer a long pattern if they hear it from enough people...I think a wright sales rep is on this forum if I'm not mistaken. And again, it's the principle of it. I'm fine with...
