Best looking "long pattern wrench" ???

[crbnfbr]

I searched, but saw nothing similar.
I was wondering on pure looks alone whose combo wrench is best looking?

I personally like Stahwille long pattern and Armstrong and about a half dozen more. Personally though I love the look of the Williams Super Combo. They have that sleek transition to that nice thick handle. Plus, they come in black oxide also which is cool too.

What are your opinions on the best looking combo wrenches?

IMO, Carlyle. I have gearwrench but they have nothing on Carlyle.

Stahlwille. And their finish is impeccable.

SK. The graceful flowing transition from beam to closed end along with perfect chrome is hard to beat for looks. (bottom wrench in this image)

This is easy, the trophy goes to SK! Although, I think they look just a little better with the Craftsman name stamped in them.

The fully polished Bonney wrench. Nothing else is better looking.....wrench-wise that is.

I personally like the Armstrong extra long patterns the best they are just a little longer than stahlwille but I do like the satin finish on the srahlwille better

Wright full polish wrenches..

All great looking wrenches. I never like the Matco, or was it Matco, V cutout, but it worked for Bonney.

This thread definitely needs more pics!

Snap-on. The most beautiful wrench in the world.

Anyone have names for the wrenches above? The SK is a SuperKrome right?

Don't know if it's long pattern version-but the "Kobolt" in the top of this group is a nice "Looker"

That's one of the original Williams-made Kobalts. Very nice wrench indeed! I've been looking for a set of those in SAE for a looooooooooong time.

I have a set of those in metric. I always wondered who made them, now I know. Thanks!

Craftsman Industrial!

Edit: I like RPs and Proto non full polish too, that finish...

 

[zoso]

Its too hard to decide which wrench is the nicest looking. For Longer ones I like Bonney/Matco, Snap-on, and the pre-knucklesaver MACs. For shorter wrenches I also like the Stahlwille 13.

I actually dislike them, and their cman friends, because of that.

I agree!

 

[doodah man]

I don't have them, but I love the Proto Professional 500 Combos in that leather tool roll. Maybe one day...

No clue... I never really compared looks of wrenches, only utility.

My Cman Industrials don't look bad I guess

 

[MadMark]

I'd much rather compare Wenches, Bronzed and oiled, not chrome

Yeah, like websites with that content are so hard to find on the Internet...

No brainer, John Deere usa made by Bonney.

I also always love the snap on oh series with round handles
