Description: |
The lever handle lifts the gripping surface of the movable jaw, and also provides wedging action for the toothed interior of the movable jaw to mesh with rack teeth on the shank.
Ken Cope's "American Wrench Makers 1830-1930" lists the Vise Wrench Co. of Brooklyn as maker of this wrench, and the partially readable markings on a known example confirms that attribution. |
