A Couple of Small Spanners

It says "Acme[1] 2029" on them. I googled that and learned that these are for adjusting bifold door pivots.

The big open end is 1/2". That truncated jaw would be to give the wrench a sort of 'ratcheting' action. The box wrench and the small open end are both 5/16". It appears that one of the small open ends was filed to make it 11/32".

These remind me that I have quite a collection of little specialized spanners. I should hang them on a toolboard and free up some drawer space.


Note:

[1] Isn't 'Acme' the outfit that Wile E. Coyote gets all his failure-prone gear from?
