There are several types.  Some have ratchets on both ends, but I prefer the 
ratchet/box end type.  Also, you want the 
ones with the lever to switch directions (without the lever you have to turn 
the wrench over to reverse).

These wrenches are very handy.  I have a set of the Sears (Craftsmen), and the 
half-inch that fits the nuts on my HD8s' 
air filters is worth the price.
