I found this old Snap on breaker bar recently and thought it was unusual, at least to me. I searched the catalogs on this site and did a Google search and could not find a breaker bar with this model number.

What makes it unusual to me is it has a handle like I have never seen, and it has a hole in the bottom of the handle instead of through it. From the date code it appears to be from 1950. Anyone seen one like this before and if so what is the hole in the bottom for? Thanks.

I worked with a man who had worked on aircraft at a major Navy air base. He has a breaker bar like yours that came from there. I don' think it was supposed to leave there!

I don't know, I got it from a pawn shop! It makes sense though, as it must be special order as I can't find it listed in any catalogs.
