Abstract
A multi-tool adjustable wrench which provides for the adaption of an adjustable wrench so that it may be used as a hammer and a wrench, without the hammer surface interfering with the wrench's utility and without exposing the adjustment mechanism to severe damage. The hammer surface is located on the wrench head rearward of the adjusting mechanism. In addition, the wrench handle is adapted to function as a screwdriver, measuring ruler, wire stripper, and T-handle. The handle and base of the wrench head form a square face. Inch and metric measuring scales are provided on the wrench jaws with auxiliary Vernier scales for accurate measurement.

A wrench comprising:
- (a) a wrench head having a fixed first jaw, a crown and a base wherein said wrench head is provided with a first major surface with an inch measuring scale for indicating the distance between the first and second jaws, and said wrench head is provided with an opposed second major surface with a metric measuring scale for indicating the distance between the first and second jaws;
- (b) a second jaw slideably mounted in the wrench head wherein said second jaw is provided with a first major surface with an auxiliary Vernier scale to allow more accurate reading of the distance between the first and second jaws, and said second jaw is provided with an opposed second major surface with an auxiliary Vernier scale to allow more accurate reading of the distance between the first and second jaws;
- (c) an adjusting means for varying the distance between said first jaw and said second jaw;
- (d) a hammer face positioned between the crown and the base of the wrench head;
- and
- (e) a handle with a proximate end mounted to the base of the wrench head, and an opposite distal end.
