Love these PROTOs! Thanks for posting. Their interchangeability is very interesting. (I use the heck out of my 5249s. Don't own any Plombs, unfortunately.)
Mr. Soichiro Yamashita would approve too if he was still alive. 😽👆 btw, some URREA kits are interchangeable too if you don't have a Proto one available. 😉
I watch this video to see how similar the protos are to the Kokens because they look similar. But when you open them up the Kokens have 2 teeth on the pawl and a much stronger design where the pawls hinge. Koken redesigned this old ratchet into a work of art. * and its sad that chinese proto you showed really cut corners

Yeah they’re pretty nice 👍
Very little design changes from a 70 year old plumb ratchet to a modern day proto ratchet ... Great video Mr Ratchet man take care enjoy your day
Right on, thanks 👍
This was pretty interesting. I guess sticking with a good design is the simplest and most cost-saving thing to do. Mr. Plomb would be proud.
