Curious how well the pipe wrench function of that wrench set works?

How did you get the package delivered to you
You live offgrid right ?

You screw the bottom jaw out and flip it and run it back in. You turn it opposite of usual though, away from the jaws. It has a serrated edge that bites when you go against the grain.

I wouldnt lean to hard on it.

How cool is that?! Where'd you get it?

They had it in our local feed store. I like that kind of stuff for a sxs and leaving in barns and stuff where you cant always have a full tool set.

I use yo have a couple of the bone wrenches that I used all the time. Had one for standard and one for metric. They were super handy because they were pass through also and a lot of the stuff at work had long studs sticking up.

This is as close as I could find online. At Walmart.com of all places. Thoughts?

Can't imagine that the "pipe wrench" feature's bite could be too great, with the serrated edge only being on the one face. and having broken quite a number of good sized aluminum pipe wrenches surprisingly easily, I'd doubt that this one could "hold up"... But it'd sure be a handy tool to have in the toolbox. Now how to store all those socket inserts without losing them, once you open the packaging? They ought to have a plastic or metal "sleeve" to keep them all contained in, maybe a metal case for the wrench and them, all in one.

Best price I found on it. In the video, they say "packaged with convenient storage tray, sockets stay organized and ready for action"... not quite what I was thinking, but at least an attempt I guess. If it's the normal lightweight plastic backer we typically see, it'd probably work for the first day............ maybe................. How much more would it take to actually have a case with a snap-lock lid?

I've had a bunch of these "spud" wrenches in equipment and such for years. They have the reversible "pipe wrench jaw" , it's good for getting a stuck garden hose or something off but it isn't a replacement for a pipe wrench. It'll bite into a stuck pipe just enough for you to feel confident only to let go and bloody your knuckles in a hurry been there a few times. Lol

We buy those cheap tool bags from like harbor freight or places and throw misc tools in them alot. They ride yeal well on sxs or milk crates on atvs and things. You have to dig a little but they are easy to pack.
