Back in the '50s we had a pair of fencing pliers somewhat like that, the hammer head was different, it was rectangle in shape, and it's face was like a rough in hammer.

I have the Chinesium version of that fence plier. The handles come too close together when used as pliers and its guaranteed to give you blood blisters if you try to cut wire with it.

Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see
That isn't true at all. Like Double07 said, they no longer produce their own castings.

Should make you wonder if they really are made in USA.
Maybe more like assembled in USA.
The foundry where they they are created was sold sometime last year. So they are at the mercy of someone else's foundry.

Youve got to remember where they are . Its probably illegal to have a fencing pliers factory open right now . And farmers and ranchers are no longer considered essential .

It's currently being used as an excuse across the board, from manufacturing down to delivery.... Sadly, put simply, as it's all happening employees keep playing right along because those working are afraid to make waves, and those aren't are relying on those who are to keep them paid. I never thought I'd see the day when Free people acted like sheep being led around by the nose, 'for their own good'......

SV Ive built and fixed fence a lot in my 66 years but that's the first time to hear of a plammer. Just proves you can always learn if you pay attention. I had to goggle it and found them priced from $50 to$70. Thanks for posting them.
