I have sears dunlop banded one like that. I suspect someone could re-grind the teeth. I wonder how they were cut in the factor. Probably with a mill.

My Dad had one of those. I think my brother still has it.

yeah i thought of that, but leveling them first would do better and that would be a lot to do with a file. Is there a foley bellsaw pipe wrench jaw sharpener?

On 2' Ridgid I use a 1 1/2" piece of electrical EMT. You hammer 1 end of it oval to fit over the Ridgid handle. When you push it on it locks to the wrench handle and comes off with a hammer tap easily. The EMT is a lot lighter than pipe and is easier to handle when you're on a ladder struggling with a wrench and cheater. And the EMT is very difficult to bend.
I used to make one out of 2" emt and 1 out of 1 1/2" emt 2' long and store 1 inside the other in the truck.

I used a Dremel to recut the teeth on mine. First I used an abrasive cutting wheel to deepen the notch at the bottom of each tooth. I then used a sandpaper drum to grind down the face of the tooth.

The stuff I have isn't super old, just some cool older things, I will keep adding to the thread as I dig it out.
