Savage Barrel Nut & Action Wrench

I’d like to see pics of your wrenches if you can. I like ol timey and weird hand tools.
Don’t know ‘Timey’ but if you mean timely, well no. I won’t tie up the post with endless pics so I’ll post three. Your question could also be a test if I’m full of crap. Wrong guy if that’s it.
First I’m sure some have. DZUS fastener tool
Second gets stranger. Tool made to remove threaded slotted bezel nut from switches on early VW’s. However ( maybe coincidentally) the perfect tool for adjusting front sight on an UZI
Third is my make. Maybe someone will know what it’s for. Invaluable at one time.

I’ve seen the first one, not the second one and the third? A gear driven? for what?

Cool collection, thanks for sharing.
Your welcome
Third is is to remove or install 6mm bolt on rear of air cooled VW fan shroud. Usually missing (not from factory) because of the four bolts needed this one bolt is nearly impossible to reinstall without this long handled gear (3gears) driven tool. And of course it’s filthy as it hasn’t been used in decades. Made by Sherzinger.
The second tool was made by Weralit. It was used to remove threaded slotted bezel nuts from early VW dash boards. However (coincidentally?) perfect tool to adjust front sight on an UZI
I have an insane number of odd tools, all of which I have used.

If anyone watched Orange County Choppers, the show’s opening scene was always a Crescent wrench ( wrong tool) being used in the wrong direction tightening a front fork on a bike.
Typical of the quality of that show.
 
the Crescent wrench I use has never slipped on anything very tight fitting I paid 56.00 for it 10 inch it's black I don't know the maker but it's guaranteed for life to not slip and it hasn't...so my knuckles are clean...the wrench is very well made smooth movement

Glad a Crescent wrench works for you.
And there’s NO manufacturer name on it?
Then again depends on the use. Meaning for over 65 years 6 hours a a day 5 days a week I’ve had some sort of tool I’m working with. A Crescent wrench ? No. Don’t have one in my tool box but one would be at home for some type of home plumbing job.
 
I love my crescent wrenches, and I've got a few good ones. -- And I'll use them backwards, but not for tough torque jobs. And for barrel/action work -- nahh. jd
