i think thats it, fully closed mines 15½" long, 20" long fully out
no interest in selling it, it will be hung on the workshop wall - fantastic bit of kit, I will probably use it for something eventually

Stilson is a pipe wrench with teeth on the jaws to bite into the metal to grip the pipe, this has flat jaws for turning Nuts.
