Is there another brand that's as small as the duralast 73-868? I bought an astro nano but it's huge in comparison
duralast 73-868 equivalent?

That Duralast is a great ratchet! Really like the handle. Too bad its been discontinued now for quite some time.

Thanks. Yeah it is, I really like mine. I'd like to get another just in case something happens to this one

I’d just buy another one on eBay. If you really like the ratchet and it has worked well for you, there’s no reason to settle for a different design just because Duralast changed suppliers and discontinued it and you can still get a NOS at a decent price $12.99 + $8.06 shipping.
You may have to spend a little more than when they were being cleared out, but new-old-stock examples will only get harder to find. Pay what it’s worth to you, buy one while they’re still available and stop looking. You’ll have the tool you already know you like and having a backup should last you for many years!!
Buy this now on eBay and be done! https://ebay.io/m/yHo10O

And just so you know, I really do like those older Duralast ratchets before Autozone switched suppliers and I have already bought my back ups!!!

That's not the same ratchet. None on eBay right now

The ones that do show up, usually don't hang around long. I assume several have it on their saved search.

Different handle style and price point but the dimensions you're after. Glowing reviews.
