I took a chance with a low bid because I didn't need it that bad; I just sort of wanted it. This auction is the closest I've came to winning and being outbid.

You got beat by 50 cents, because that was the next increment for the proxy bidder. The winning bidder's maximum bid might have been $50 higher than yours. :stir:

Now that you have your Snap on collection almost complete, are you now moving on to new territory?

Thank you for all the sympathy; I've managed to find a suitable replacement.

What sympathy?

I'll be standing in line at the post office tomorrow. This will be my first SO extra-long 1/2" wrench; I'm exited!

How can can you post all of the ebay threads and only have a feedback of 8? Are we just a lookie lou?
Good purchase though. I would tell you to buy some used tools so, it could look like you actually used them in your pictures but, it would fall on deaf ears.

I might use this new wrench, but I won't let it come in contact with anything abrasive such as concrete.

Merk, I have a Snap on long format, low torque (i.e. extra thin wrench), double open end 1/2"-9/16" wrench. Its brand new, I bought it for a specific use, that will re-occur throughout the mock up, disassembly, and final assembly of my car. I think Ive used it once.

Its extremely ****!

I was going to try just one out and write a full review, but my max bid was not $150 like Moose would bid. Oh well, maybe next time.

I bought a box of tools full of wrenches, screwdrivers etc. the other day and it had a 13mm knuckle saver wrench in it. I have to say I kind of like the wrench. Wouldn't mind having a set of long metric Knuckle Saver wrenches. Man I can't believe I just said that

Does it have USA stamped on the back?

Sounds like you got mugged by a rapper.

Well done my friend!

I suppose it does. . .

I like old fashion 40's music like the Glen Miller band.

You know thats funny Cat ServiceMan and I were just talking about that last night. That 13mm wrench doesn't have USA on it anywhere! It says 13mm knuckle Saver on one side and part number and US patent number on the other. I just recieved in the mail today a new 15mm Knuckle Saver I bought off Ebay and it says USA on the back side of it. I don't know what happened to the 13mm if it was just not stamped or what so I can't really say where it was made!

Not to hijack merk's thread here, but I checked my 13 and 16 long KS wrenches at work today and they both have USA on the back. I think your wrench was probably just mis-stamped. I can't see them making those wrenches in more than one factory.

That's a relief to hear that!

I would say your right about the wrench CAT! I just recieved in the mail a 15mm that says USA on the back

Closest I have ever won by, 3 cents, lost by, 21 cents. It CAN be infuriating.
