1/4" drive Ratchet Handle with no markings

[Ralf11]

Any thoughts on how common it was to make a ratchet handle with no manf. marks on it?

It is at least as old as the early 1960s (given to me then when I was a "kid") and has a knurled handle. Also, an orifice on top for oil or grease.

It's not a bad ratchet, and I'm curious about it...

Can you put a pic of it up? A few brands have an oiler. Could be a Walden. They liked to not brand things sometimes.

Here's the back - that's the name of the owner, who I think gave it to me

Thanks!

Where did they fit in the Quality hierarchy?

Yep, that's a Walden. Very course gearing.
