This is a brass (no spark) wrench seen at a local flea market. I expect it might be for tightening valves on acetylene or similar tanks, though I've not seen this name before.
Looks like a wrench that was included with a Beaver lathe. Not brass or non-sparking; just a "brassy" coating. Scroll down to the very bottom of this page and there's a picture and a description of you wrench:
BTW, If I ever find evidence of machined components in a beaver dam, I'll let you know. We'd be in trouble. Right now they're firmly in the stone age, and hope they stay there, I can't keep up as it is!

Are these tools to be used on Beavers or by Beavers? Are beaver dams bolted together by wooden bolts? Canadians must know!

Thanks for digging that up! Definitely the definitive thread on the Beaver lathe.

To quote Leslie Nielsen "Nice beaver!"
