Ratcheting Stubby Wrench Appraisal

Mac Tools Ratcheting Stubby Wrench

The item is a Mac Tools combination ratcheting stubby wrench. It features a bright red, ergonomic handle made of a durable plastic or composite material, designed for a comfortable grip. The handle transitions into a polished chrome or nickel-plated steel shaft, which shows some minor surface scratching and smudges consistent with use in a workshop environment. The head of the wrench is also chrome or nickel-plated steel, featuring a combination open-end and ratcheting box-end design. The box end appears to be a 12-point or similar multi-point design, indicating its versatility for various fasteners. The ratcheting mechanism is integrated into the head. Visible markings on the red handle clearly state "MAC TOOLS" and "MADE IN U.S.A.", indicating its American origin and manufacturer. Another marking, possibly a size or model number, "MACTOOL" is faintly visible on the steel shaft just below the head. The tool appears to be in good, used condition, with general wear and tear expected from a working tool but no significant damage such as bends, cracks, or severe corrosion. Its compact, 'stubby' design suggests it is intended for use in confined spaces. The craftsmanship appears robust, characteristic of professional-grade tools.
