New wrenches from Craftsman?

[Vern_in_IL]

I`m seeing so called ¨leaked¨images on forums about the new Craftsman combination wrenches. They show ridges on both the open end and the six point end, grooves if you will, where the tool contacts the bolt, similar but more aggressive compared to the WrightGrip. Anyone got more information?

...and WHY would you need the grooves on the six point end of the wrench?

I recall this video, WrightGrip "crushed" the competition. The set has been on my wish list on Amazon for some time to watch the price trends.

Six point combos-thought 12 point was the standard?
