A wrench comprising a body member having a lower jaw disposed at one end thereof, a head member having a spring engaging surface and a base engaging surface, the head member being pivotally connected to the body member in the vicinity of the lower jaw and defining an upper jaw, a handle member pivotally connected to the body member, biasing spring disposed between the body member and the handle member for biasing the handle member away from the body member, the handle member containing a lever engaging end portion which slidably engages the base engaging surface of the head member for separating the upper jaw of the head member from the lower jaw of the body member through the squeezing of the handle member toward the body member against the bias of the biasing spring, and a retaining spring attached at one end to the body and at the other end of the spring engaging surface of the head member, whereby, when the handle is released, the upper jaw of the head member is caused to close toward the lower jaw by the action of the retaining spring.
