Some different types of Blue Point Ratcheting Wrenches.
From what I have found. Started in mid 30s, in mid 50s, name was changed to Snap on.
Show up in the 40s and 50s cats. The number in a set seems to vary, from one to ?
Top to bottom.
RS2428 date code 48
RS3032 would date late 30s
ROEX-220 would date early 40s.
RB1416 would date mid 30s
Would guess that there are more types out there, post them if you have them

I have a fondness for this type of wrench. Not much opportunity to use them anymore but at one time a job I had they were used daily. The chrome set I bought new and it was only available in the four sizes in inch sizing - I would love to find them in metric.
The black oxide I bought at swaps.

I have a set of the Blue Point R OEX ratcheting wrenches. Unfortunately I am missing the 9/16 (R OEX18).

Nice. I have never seen this large of set, any date codes on them?

Not that I see. Where would the date code be and look like?

probably on the head. would be a one digit number.
I have some of the same models as this and they have no date codes. would probably date 40s
here is a link to the collecting snap on date code chart.
