so a few weeks ago I scored a CL deal on a kennedy box with some tools in it. lots of stuff was cheap chinnese...but mixed in were some good things from Wright, Proto, Williams, and more
so I finally got a chance to really go through the stuff this weekend and found this little gem
it is a 3/8 dr in what you would expect to me a 1/4 handle but it is the smallest head ratchet I have ever seen with a 3/8dr in at....and to boot its in really great shape.
it is not a fine tooth but the action is smooth. Im thinking this one is a keeper so I guess Im just showing off my new to me crome

What he said ↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑

The heads on the Wright 1/4" drive ratchets (and 3/8" in 1/4" body) are tiny.

The 3/8"-in-a-1/4"-body ratchet is something I've used way more than I thought I would. I have the modern 3430.

cool, good info
I think I like the contour handle better but for the price this one goes into the toolbox to get some use

Nice find. I'm a fan of the thumb bar direction lever. And the knurled handle. Kind of like my SK stuff.
