I have looked far and wide looking for this tool box, even on the snap-on website I have found nothing I have looked in a snap on catalog, still nothing. Does anyone know anything about it I can't find any snap on with double locks like this one. Could it be fake?

Also I don't think that's a dent in the top I think its just like a piece of paper or something hanging over and causing it to look like that

Looks like a kra from the late 90's. Same exact box as my first SO box. I forget the exact model number, they no longer make them.

Take a shovel to clear a run way!

If I was to buy one I'd also ask here.

It definitely is the right styling, with the style of pull, and the outer chromed edges. I took a part a top snap on box that looked nearly identical.

The large bottom drawer is BB. The rest are friction.
I know I must be misreading this, are you saying that, although Snap-On tool boxes cost many thousands of dollars, and in today's dollars always have, SOME OF THE DRAWERS DO NOT HAVE BALL BEARING SLIDES?? :eek: WTF?

KRL's are ball bearing. Older KR's were a mix.

I agree on it being a krl761 probably being a 761a the b models had one lock cylinder. also agree the early ones like that the bottom drawer on each bank was two inches taller, new models weren't and they added additional 2" drawers.

It's a krl 761. I have one they made a krl 761b with 2 more drawers
Mine is from 1996 if you were wanting to find a catalog with one. On the back upper left is all the info stamped into box

Its a mid 90s box. Not everything was bearing back then. I wouldn't buy it unless it was roller bearing, but the old friction slides are pretty smooth on those boxes
