Cal Hawk BAWS 16" Adjustable Iron Workers Spud Wrench

I don’t know if I would use this for constant use. But I’m not a steelworker, so cheap is just fine for me.It seems to be a decent quality. It’s all cast parts except for maybe the adjustment screw and it’s retaining bolt. I fact the mild line on the handle can be seen all the way to the tip. Everything has had the flash removed, so there is no sharp edges.The jaw is a bit loose in it’s track. It will move about 1/16” each way. There is not much back and forth slop, so the adjustment is smooth and doesn’t catch anywhere.It exhibits the hallmarks of a cheap tool; minor surface defects from finishing. Nothing glaring and really nothing noticeable unless you are looking for it.Overall exactly what I was expecting and exactly what I wanted. I don’t think I will use it hard enough to break it. Would recommend.

this wrench is great forall boltheads up to 1-1/2 or so very versatile the slide is tight! it has been an awesome fits most surprise needs and it holds tight you can put a pipe on for more torque. I doubt I can ever hurt it... So it's a for life tool! leave to someone in your will!

Seems to be a good spud I don’t know I put it to the test I even put a cheater on it seem like it’s going to hold up

I've been using the pick end to line holes up on large steel mating surfaces.I thought the case iron pick end would snap off under the pressure I put it under, but it's lasted so far.

Probably not the highest quality tool of its type available, but its price point is very good. I particularly liked the inch graduations etched on one side of the wrench, but a nice touch would be to put the metric equivalent etched on the opposite side.

Jaws are sturdy enough I did bend the tip a little already but that happens. It’s stronger than other ones I’ve had though.

Guarantee your co-workers will steal it from ya if you leave it out. Great for lining up flanges, smashing and cranking on the wrench.

Seems like a quality tool. I'll put it to the real test in a few weeks when we're hanging I-beams and I have to stuff it in a bolt hole and get a come-along on it. I'll update
