Question SK Wrench Set

[JackVegas]

I bought this SK wrench set off Letgo. I am assuming they are SK. Upon closer inspection there is no stamped SK on the wrenches. The tool roll indicates SK and Dresser. Its a complete set. All the wrenches are like this except one that is a replacement brand.

The only markings are the "Forged in USA" on one side. I've never seen an SK wrench with these markings. Did SK ever make a set without logo? The thing that makes me believe they are SK is the little date code stamps are present and like their other wrenches.

Any help would be appreciated.

No markings

The shape looks very SK like, but there is no raised panel and the open end wrench is not ground flat on the sides.

Those look a little like the SK diamond wrenches, mostly in the shape and finish. The SK diamond wrenches are satin as well.

I think Sam's Auto Parts hit the nail on the head. Between the older SK professional Raised Panel Wrenches, and the introduction of Super Chrome full polished wrenches, SK made some let's say different tools, with the diamond logo. The Frankenstein ratchet with the push button direction switch was one the their tools made during this timeframe so, were satin finished wrenches

However, I think your set might be seconds or a government set because there's no SK branding on the front side of the wrench. The small Easco made wrench leans me towards a government set but, who knows.

Not sure this answers any questions, or maybe creates new ones. Either way here are two I had handy.




I wish had two of the same size, but the best I could do is 1/2" and the 9/16"

I have seen those type wrenches before and I don't have any proof, but i believe they are made by S-K for sale by other companies/brands. They are kind of short and plain. Not as good as the Dresser era Wrenches and no where close to as good as the SuperKrome wrenches of modern design. I dont hate them, they are not bad wrenches, on par with raised panel craftsman or easco i would say.

Thanks for the insight guys. I didn't pay much for them. I agree they do look like the diamond wrenches without the logo.

On a side note they are really clean considering they are probably quite old. Most don't look like they ever turned a nut.

I have seen older NAPA, Blackhawk,Allen, KD and Thorsten's all look like those wrenches. Not sure who made them though.........
