A ratchet wrench comprising a ratchet head with a cylindrical bore having a central axis; a handle; a drive member () with a rotation axis (W-W) retained within the cylindrical bore for rotation about the central axis; and a toothed ratchet pawl (); a cylindrical array of straight ratchet teeth arranged about one of the cylindrical bore or the drive member; and a pawl recess () arranged to support the pawl. The pawl may mesh with the ratchet teeth for transmission of rotation of the handle in a first direction to the drive member about the rotation axis or disengage from the ratchet teeth to decouple rotation of the handle in a second direction from the drive member. Support () for the pawl in the recess is shaped to accommodate divergence between the central axis and the rotation axis.
