I'm pretty sure Facom tools and snap-on have a range of these, and possibly Britool.

I did see some curved spanners in B&Q in Northampton last time I was there but can't find them on the website to confirm that they have an open end. I'll keep an eye open for some.


If you get desperate, a long shaft 14mm combination and a blacksmith?

That is one of 2 sites that i found which had them, if all else fails then i will contact them as a last resort as i only need one as a replacement.


I see you added another couple of links... yes i had found those as well, they all are in India so maybe that is where it came from originally

I've bought several unusual tools from the US. It seems a bit drastic but the quality has always been good.

These claim they are open ended but no picture- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kamasa-9pc...item4855f6dc85
Maybe worth a quick message to them?

Checked the ones in B&Q, they are half moon ratchet spanners and at £43 for a set of four you'd really want to make sure that you're going to get some use out of them.
