Crescents are measured from end of jaws to end of handle. So when I asked for the metric crescent wrench (working on Toyota) they shoulda handed me the 20cm instead of the 8"?

Yes, I believe Sears (Craftsman) crescent wrenchs are forged w/ inch markings on one side and metric on the other. Allthough that will probably keep the average high school grad guessing for weeks!

You've just given away one of the best jokes to pull on an apprentice jet engine mechanic. It ranks up there with "go get me a number 7 bolt stretcher."

They probably should have handed you the boxed end or open ended wrench that you asked for after observing the bolt or nut size...A cresent wrench is a "brand name" of an adjustable wrench

PC, I would suggest the 36". It makes for a better beater {hammer}. Peace and love, George.
