Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Based on what you say, it sounds like it was made in the USA. Do you agree? And, if so, its odd that they didn't mark it. Maybe they didn't have enough space to do so..

I found this caw hammer at a Goodwill. Handle was pretty much destroyed. After cleaning up, I see its an Easco. From what I read, Easco was a pretty good brand and made some Craftsman tools in North Carolina. My question is why isn't it marked USA and why are there two model numbers? Mine is...

ok, thanks.

Thanks, I looked at the exploded view on ereplacement and Sears but is kind of a poor scan. I looked at what was once a link ink the thread thread jonshonda pointed out but the images with the link info are no longer posted.If anyone has a scan or pdf please let me know. thanks

Nah they don't stock it. thanks

I need a copy of owners' manual if anybody has one. I haven't been able to find one. thanks mitch

I've done some more looking, and from what I've seen they look virtually identical to Harrold pliers. thanks

There isn't pattern on the handles (maybe because they were came with painted covering). Would Utica have made pliers marked Western Germany?

Thanks for your help. They are very interesting and i like them.

Hi, I came across these old pliers that were saved by my family many years ago. I'm trying to identify the manufacturer. The only marking is on the pivot and says "Made in Western Germany". The handles were originally painted blue and I removed the paint. I've done quite a bit of searching...

Problem solved! I fixed it. It was very strange. After using all the other thicknesses of feeler stock, just for the hell of it I used the .002 and it turned around without a problem! I think it worked because the .002 fit between the end of the pin and the pawl. The pawl must not have been...

Tried tapping on both sides of pawl with a 3/16" brass rod and small hammer. The spring pin just seems to bang into the cavity end I guess. Although after the tapping,I feel a slight click as the selector is turned to the extreme position in one of the two directions. Maybe the spring pin...

Been shoving metal stips down as far as about an inch but none of the tries seem to be pushing on the spring /plunger...wiggling selector to and fro as I do this. I also tried mounting a variable speed jigsaw upside down in a vise, duct taping the ratchet handle to the blade and varying the...

I ordered a feeler that goes down do .0015". That should slip through.

Actually I was sliding the 3 super-duper magnets down the face, hoping that they'd drag the spring pin down from the tooth side of the pawl. The bore in which the pawl rotates, has almost zero clearance between it's surface and the pawl's edges. I couldn't force any grease though using my...

Tried stacking 3 neodymiun hard drive magnets and sliding them down the face. No luck. Apparently the field is absorbed by the tool. I tried my thinnest feeler leaf (.011") but apparently can't slide it far enough to reach the pin (before it stops). I feel very bad. Here's my sob story...

I'll try it tomorrow with the feeler. I'll let you know. thanks very much for all of the ideas.

I cannot see any hole in the pawl probably because mine doesn't rotate to the position where yours is.. I have a very strong magnet that I salved from a hard drive and tried sliding this down the face of the ratchet while wiggling the selector. No luck. I could try stacking a second magnet to...
