recently got a 1/2-in drive 24" breaker bar from Level Chrome made in Japan by Ko-Ken. then I noticed I think I may have a fetish for breaker bars of this size...

You're supposed to scratch it off your shopping list once you buy one. Breaker bars are essential tools, and I have several sizes, but there are plenty of other things my shop needs besides a 1/2" x 24" breaker bar collection. :drool:

or maybe those of us with this fetish need to create our own "AA" group...

I saw the snap on 24" bar with the square drive offset 45* and had to have one. I haven't really needed it yet but it sure is nice.

Nice breaker bars. Lately I've had a pry bar fetish. You don't realize how many different length, sizes, configurations there are until you're into too deep to stop. Lol.

Bottom one looks like the famous HF bar.

I don't like it as much because it deflects a lot more than my other bars, but it hasn't broken yet (knocking on wood...)

Oddly I have a couple of harbor freight ones I use in my stores to break the mounting bolts loose on commercial washers. I have broken one so far, but I also use a cheater bar on them. At home I use a mix of snap on and sk for the Vettes when needed. I would like to get a couple of the SO comfort grip ones like you have....nice collection nonetheless.

The HFT one is the one i use to use the most and its never failed me. I use the SO one more now. The GW one I picked up because it was a good deal and I like GW stuff. The ko-ken... well, I think it's only made me realize I might have a problem... :)
