Monday Mystery, sailboat logo wrench


Here is a basic-looking 3/4" wrench. Other than the fact that it is "drop forged alloy steel" we have no information. I've never seen a logo like that, it might be Chinese, thoughts?


thanks, Inno!

"Inoue Seisakusho"...per this (quite thorough) blog page which Chrome at least translates very well into English:

Alloy Artifacts says they made wrenches for OEM motorbike manufacturers, which may explain the SAE size in your picture.

P.S. This wrench was found in a thrift store in Bancroft, Ontario.

That side, https://ameblo.jp/corgibell/entry-12731793613.html should be bookmarked.
So much information there.

He sure has done his research. Start clicking those links on the right and it goes on forever. And for some reason his Japanese writing translates cleanly into English...it's very readable.
