Just keeping his spirit alive mate. What a legend he was.Gary Moore?? Still making music from the dead?
IV gone for bahco in the end.Hi Gary, Bahco and Knipex are two great cutters, but only if you use them for their intended use! Cutting fencing wire, welding rods, and piano wire will kill the edge---Iv'e seen it done---why do you think there is a heavy duty pair of shears on the side of the linesman's pliers (I think you may call them combination pliers these days).
To be correct, what you call “shears on the side” ARE “side cutters” and what you call side cutters are actually “Diagonal cutters”Hi Gary, Bahco and Knipex are two great cutters, but only if you use them for their intended use!

Can you still get Elliot Lucas pliers and cutters?
Yeah cheers Tel just checked it out, the last pair I had, had the thick red Handles, just the ticket for hanging them in your back pocket looking the part, I'm on about Pliers, before Spoon comes up with one of his slightly smutty Spoonerisms. lol could be investing in a pair of those you linked Tel, just to rekindle the flame, oh hang on better not, I could be going to ELEX next month, don't want to push my luck to far with new tools, maybe later.think so. also some stuff on amazon
