Ed,
The wrench I bought from Hemphills is not like these other ones. It's
accurately abrasive-jet cut out of 1/4" steel and can be hit with a sledge
hammer. I've used it several times with no distortion of the area around the
nut. I think Surgeons may sell these same wrenches, which come from GB.
If you (or anyone) would like to see a picture I can email one.
