Abstract
An adjustable fastener engaging tool includes a plurality of jaws slidably disposed in a retainer. An actuator engages a driver jaw resulting in the jaws either moving in a first direction to enlarge a fastener-receiving aperture cooperatively formed by the jaws, or the jaws moving in a second direction to reduce the fastener-receiving aperture to grip or release a fastener.
