non locking flex head ratchet
To my surprise... there really isn't much on the net that I could find with the disadvantages to a non locking flex head ratchet. I am looking at a new 1/2" ratchet and can't decide on the flex head or not. I think the flex head might come in handy when wrenching to an extent, but I also think it can hurt too. If you get too far off center in either direction, I find that you really don't get a good pull and some times get that swinging motion if your really trying to break a bolt free lol. I also find that I have a tendency to put both hands on the handle on a straight ratchet for a hard pull, where I feel I need to have one hand holding the ratchet head on the bolt with a flex design. What are your experiences with a non locking flex head ratchet?

I use my brothers flex head everyonce in awhile because its longer than my regular ratchet, at first I had busted knuckles everytime I looked at it wrong, now I have the hang of it and its no harder to use than a straight ratchet.
Flex heads are good for gettin to stuff your normally cant and a little bit of use you get the hang of it
