Williams b-53A not a double pawl!!

[The collector]

I recently purchased the B-53a williams rat on Amazon described as a double pawl... the first time I turned the anvil I realized it was not but instead it was a heart spring pawl like alot of roto heads I own witch is a good design but absolutely not a double pawl like the old b-52..... are all of the newer williams this way or are there different newer models??

Yeah the newer ones have a Facom-like design.

On every website I visit they advertise it as double pawl like the old ones wonder why they are doing this?

I'd never give up my old school SK round head but the TUFF 1's are very nice and use that FACOM sliding pawl design.

Yeah man. The Tuff1's have so little back-drag when they get broke in. Great ratchets!
