It's a box ratchet, but there has to be a proper name for the thing. The 
only place I've seen them was when they were advertised on TV a couple 
of years back.  The ones I saw didn't have a lever, you had to turn the 
wrench over.  I was thinking, that'd be real handy backing a bolt out in 
a tight space if you didn't have enough room to get the wrench off the 
bolt. <:-))  I've often thought a set of them with a reversing lever 
like you described would be very handy.
