Review on Braudel Heavy Duty Pocket Wrench: Versatile Multi-Purpose Tool With Double Scale And Stainless Steel Construction by Joseph Winfrey

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Braudel Pocket Wrench

I bought one of these pocket wrenches for a small tool kit that I put together. I have a Burketek Pocket Wrench II and they are great little tools to carry around in your pocket or in any tool kit. This one is near identical to the Pocket Wrench II but falls a little short in precision design. The wrenches are identical in size and the wrench openings are spot on. The laser etched rulers on this wrench, one being SAE and the other MM, are perfectly aligned and highly visible. The metal finish is a nice shiny polished finish and matches that of the Pocket Wrench II. The only noticeable differences that I could make out are the 1/4 slot for bits is not lined up perfectly as with the Pocket Wrench II and the slot is a little rough as if it was punched and not laser cut. The other difference that I found was the slant on the pry bar end was not perfectly lined up with the ruler so again obviously not a 100% precision job, but also not affecting any functionality. Visual impairments aside, this is a very close match to the Pocket Wrench II and functions just as well and I highly recommend it as they are handy little tools to have around.

Pros
  • cool little gaget
Cons
  • The non-standard size of the wrench may make finding replacement parts or repairing it more difficult
