Subject: [CR]abingdon king dick spoke wrench?

i found what looks like a cross-shaped, hand-forged spoke wrench stamped 'abingdon king dick' on one side, and the numbers 0 - 3 (one on each arm) stamped on the other side.

does anyone know anything about this, is it, in fact, handmade, or just poorly manufactured, is it old or just abused?

many thanks for any pointers or information.
