Sweet. I picked up a Williams 3/8" B-52 ratchet at a yard sale a month ago for a buck. Cleaned the grime off of it and it looks almost new.

Yesterday I got a None Better (New Britain made, same as Craftsman BE) 1/2" ratchet for free as part of a deal for a regulator, lubricator and filter setup at a machine shop that was going out of business.

That has the Craftsman type RHFT guts so its effectively 90 tooth (45 w/double pawls)

Easco right?

Good score!

Yes sir. Made by Moore Drop Forging Company. I have the C-man versions, & in my opinion, the RHFT ratchets were the best ratchets ever sold under the Craftsman name.

Good score !
