What I Claim Is:
A wrench comprising a shank having spaced ears at one end, a block pivotally mounted on the ears, a socket head having a pair of ears pivotally connected with the block, a sleeve slidably mounted on the shank adapted to embrace both pairs of ears and lock the socket head against movement, said sleeve adapted to be moved away from the ears to permit movement of the socket head in a plurality of directions, a removable head carried by the other end of the shank and provided with a transverse passage, a handle slidably mounted in the passage, and a spring pressed ball engaging the handle to prevent displacement from said shank by the handle head, and a second and long sleeve mounted on the shank above the first named sleeve and prevented from displacement from said shank by handle head, said last named sleeve adapted to serve as hand hold when the socket head is applied at various angular positions.
