Hi guys, and thanks for having me! I found this old wrench in Grandad's old machinist's chest, and can't really find much info on it. I've seen a few references to the manufacturer, but nothing as to "Sarah Equipment". The funny thing is he was infantry, not RCAF, so I have no idea where he got it from. Neither does my dad lol. Has anyone seen something like this before?

At that time in the RCAF SARAH stands for "Search and Rescue And Homing"....

My guess... a battery post or battery - radio install/removal wrench. What's the MM sizes of the wrench.

Wow, good to know, thank you! I'm not sure if you could see it, but its labelled as 7/16 and 1/2 Whitworth. Metric sizes are about 21mm and 23.5mm respectively.
