That is too cool.  I was not aware of the difference. I have a half dozen of these and they are all probably outside.  I will be checking them and watching for inside rules.
Well check them out, you might have a combo, you never know, let me know..

I must add on,
That’s why I love this forum, if you don’t know with what your dealing with whether it be a sak or some oddball item, either somebody does or somebody will do enough research to figure out something on it!

I agree.  This is a special place. 

BTW,  I checked my rulers. All outside.   I posted a pic and a list on the hand tool forum.

You have so many, so you really don’t need more but if you spot a combo then I’d go for it so you have something of both worlds, but hey, then again you can’t pass up a deal!

Yeah,  hard to pass up a deal.  Plus they make nice gifts for budding woodworkers.

No, another outsider, but it is a brand I didn’t have and at less than 30 cents why not.

I'm really liking both! I have never seen a gray Pocket Pal before. Perhaps it had an ad at one point?

Another estate sale.  The really cool items are the mini oil cans, a 6 inch early crescent wrench, a 6 inch Craftsman locking pliers, a 60’s era Shlitz church key (bottle opener)  :D and a Great Neck No. 12000 multi tool.
