Here's something I posted last year:

I finally bought a really nice Craftsman torque wrench from Sears (still have two other beam types). It's the 3/8" one that measures 5 to 80 ft/lb in .5 ft/lb increments. Has a matching Nm scale too. Cost me $75 on sale. Here's the numbers: Sears item #00944596000 Mfr. model #44596

The things that it cannot handle (insignificant considering what it CAN handle):
