Stanley definitely made 2" (i.e., over 1 1/2). I dunno about 1 3/4" specifically. I find those in big in-between sizes (larger than 1" but less than 2") to be tools I hardly ever find a use for. I either tend to need the standard sizes up to 1" or a honking big one - a 2". I could imagine some in-betweens being useful if you do stuff like post and beam or log cabin building.
