The makers were once known as Abingdon King Dick, I still use a pre-war adjustable so marked. Nothing rude about the name either, it was called after the company owner's prize Bulldog. The still make tools after 150 years of operations and can supply Whitworth spanners for those still working on the older vehicles.
