tool fell behind the drawer. turn it upside down and shake. that has happened to me on an old box before.
the slide may not be installed properly.
theres really no telling until you break it down.

Looks to be in very nice shape, also looks real familiar.
Twice now on tool boxes with drawer problems similar to yours, the stuck tool was one of those flexible pick up tools, let us know what you find, hopefully something better.

There is a little spring steel tool but you can usually use a hack saw blade.

Yep. That's the one. Not a dent on it and a tiny bit of surface rust on it.
Debating on repainting it......if I can ever get the drawers out.

it is not too hard if you have the right tool...
I have customers that call me bitching up a storm about their piece of **** snap on tool box that has only one drawer that will not lock or shut properly. I tell them to remove the drawer and get the **** out from behind it. they flip out and when I get there at my regular time I pull the drawer out and retrieve their **** and shut it and lock it.
Happens at least once a month. usually it is a bag pf parts or gaskets/seals that are wrapped in plastic

I have hte same box and the spring that normally puishes up on the lock bar slipped out was laying sideways from front to back. I had to remove the drawer and reinstall the spring under the lockbar.

Did you get the drawer problem figured out? On the krm series the top drawer locks all the other drawers. If your top draw is closed all the way with the other drawers open then you'll have to reset the lock rod. Open all the drawers and close them one by one starting with the bottom drawer.

my guess is the lock is not fully turned to the open position.
its kind of like those craftsman boxes that you have to open the top of the box first before you can open any of the drawers. if yours is like that, push back further on the lid and it might raise the locking bar.
very nice box by the way. i am looking for a small one like that
