We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember PeterC saying something like:
Bugger. The exception that etc. I admit that Bedford vanadium spanners were tough old things, but I'd like to see that used day-in, day-out on taps and see how long it takes before the jaws spread.
The modern version is the Armeg Jaw Dropper
Yes - I've used about a dozen times in about 18 years, so not exactly 'trade'. Mind, it's been swung on a bit once or twice. I now have to resist the temptation to test it!

The message from Tim W contains these words:
I've had one for some time. I agree it's good when it fits. Very nicely finished and pleasant to handle.
Try an automotive tool shop ... that looks just like the spanner used for loosening the flange nuts on hydraulic brake lines. It's got 6 flat faces instead of the usual serrated appearance so it doesn't round the nut.
