I really want a metric set, either 8-19 or 10-19, of long pattern reversible ratcheting wrenches. Unfortunately, the only two manufacturers I know are Snap-on and Armstrong.

Both are a bit pricey for me currently. The cheapest used set of Snap-on's is currently $250, and the cheapest new set of Armstrong's I currently have found is $223. There was a set on Amazon recently for $188 that I'm still kicking myself for not buying.

So, does anyone else know of a manufacturer of long pattern reversible ratcheting wrenches that are just plain old 15° offset? No flex heads or double box.

I have the 0 offset snap on ones and they are great.
A bit pricey but I had a application the other day setting a nutcert and they were the one ones that worked.

I bought the Matco set on Ebay used for $100.

Which Matco set was that, the S9GRRCXLM10? I do kind of like the look of the multi drive box end that'll do 6pt, 12pt, spline, torx and even supposedly 50% rounded fasteners.

I saw a set just sold a couple weeks ago like 15 miles from my house for $103. Wish I would have been looking for those in addition to just Armstrong.

They do look just like the Armstrong's. I had an Imperial set that was close to being my favorite wrenches I've ever used other than being Imperial that is.


I just looked at those Blackhawk's and damn the 17mm is 12.25" long that's over 2" longer than a standard long pattern wrench. They're more like extra long pattern not that it's a bad thing though, and they seem reasonably priced also.
