Once upon a time these were in everybody's catalogs. Millers Falls, Stanley, Goodell Pratt and Kleen Kutter right off the top of my head and I'm sure all the minor manufacturers too.
Here is a page with some of the Millers Falls models:

One like mine is down the page a bit a #737. Mine is a Stanley model the number of which has been forgotten.
It doesn't get a lot of use, but when it is needed it is the one to get into a tight place.

Not really uncommon, but.....I have a MF in the basement shop. Don't know the model and have never used it. Got it in a MJD "box of braces" at the Avoca auction.
