Nice Job Mr. John and what a great item for your collection!!! Your riding high these days ans I'm glad you share it with us sir! It'd be hard pressed to come across one like this again... a fella have to be living just right to do so...and that's hard too these days 🤠👍 great stuff!!!
Just think of all the things that have happened in the world since that tool was made. . Came out Fantastic I like that brushed finish perfect for this tool. You have the coolest tool collection Mr. John.
Wow! What a transformation. That old multi tool looks great Mr. John. I think that folding handle is for the wire cutter and the screwdriver so you can more torque. I wonder if it can be taken apart to remove the little locking trigger so the trigger and grooves in the rail could be filed some to get it working again. Nicely done sir
@@ivanstiles7030 Thanks for your suggestion Ivan. I took the tool apart to clean it and determined the spring was okay and the trigger was the problem. It was worn too short to make enough contact. Filing would only increase the distance.
@@johnfix1 yes sir. It's a shame it's wore out but it's still a one of a kind tool and it lokks great. Maybe metal could be added by spot welding and reprofiling it. It is definitely an unusual tool and really nice conversation piece.
That's a great old wrench John! I found the patent - 712552 awarded Nov 4 1902. It was called Tritt's Lambert patent wrench. If I find any old advertisements I'll send them to you.
That's a great tool and a great idea Thanks for sharing the tool And thanks for sharing your time and skill Thanks John great video 🍺🍺👍👍
Great job on that one!
Hi John- you really got that tool looking right. Tons of pits to start and now a lovely example of a rare tool. 😃👍
Hi John, great restoration. I think the purpose of the split handle is to provide more torque for removing tough screws.

That must have been a lot of work getting it to look that nice. Great looking tool even if it wasn't the greatest design.
