Snap-On says that their Blue Point gear wrenches have a 4.5 degree
engagement angle. Also in their picture, the wrench looks very slim. Very
good looking wrenches indeed!

Of course for the price of one set of 8, you can probably buy a 512 piece
Craftsman tool set. <sad grin>

But, they'd be a real show piece in your burgeoning tool display. I had a
birthday last month, why don't you get me a set too?
