5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT TOOL, November 28, 2007

THOR R CASPELL "TODD ROYALL CASPELL" (Port Orca, Wa. USA) - See all my reviews

This wrench has an amazingly big mouth. It opens wide as a small Ford wrench [monkey]. Nice tight jaw and good quality steel well plated / coated. Will last you forever if you don't loose it. The first thing I did was cut off the rubber handle thing and it looks fine underneath just like a real wrench. One thing is the jaws are a bit pointy so if you are carrying it in your pocket do it handle down or get some fashionable holes. Anyway I have worked on ships for 20 years and have used about everything, So I kinda know some tools. I RECOMMEND this tool and hope they come out with a 6 inch of the same design because the current 6 inch Channel lock wrench is kinda lame.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best adjustable wrench., March 23, 2010

This review is from: Channellock #8WCB 8"ADJ 1-1/2" Cap Wrench (Misc.)

Save yourself some money and buy this adjustable wrench before you buy any other wrenches. I bought this on sale to replace a cheap 8" wrench. It has replaced my 6 inch, 8 inch and 10 inch versions. The jaws are extra wide, wider than my Kobalt 10", and has very little play while turning. I cut off the blue and red plastic/rubber handle, but other people might want to keep it.

Only two caveats. First, make sure that you get model #8WCB. There are other "Code Blue" wrenches that don't have wider jaws. Second, this wrench is made is Spain. I'd prefer one manufactured in the USA.

5.0 out of 5 stars great product for a mechanics "pocket" toolbox, February 13, 2008

This adjustable wrench has all the size advantages of an 8", including the narrow jaws, but also has the capacity of a much larger adjustable. My 12" channellock adjustable doesn't even open as wide. I use this tool every day in my job and it is nearly perfect. The only problem I would change would be to make the handle covering a little bit thinner.
