Straight up price is $9
Up for sale is a USA Husky CB-45, 3/8 round head ratchet.
This was made by New Britain and rebadged for Husky.
The 45 in the model # does in fact denote 45 teeth. I counted just to make sure. You have my word in saying that this is a smooth, nice clicking ratchet.
I didn't know anything about these rats until I googled the patent and model number.

Take a look for yourself how the thing is built.
While it was a part I soaked and lubed it in ATF so it's ready to go. Cleans up real nice and easy IMHO.

Nice knurling, still grippy.
There are only 4 major components to the ratchet. It can be further disassembled by undoing the circlip in the pawl. I'll let you do that though
I got 7-1/2" long
Alright thanks for your time!
