Wire cutters

[Avery Todd]

Ron,
   I've used the Starrett Wire Cutters from Schaff for 15+ yrs. and many
restringing jobs/replacement strings. They come in 5-1/2" & 7" lengths. I
like them and they hold up well. All of the working parts can also be
replaced individually (jaws, splines, springs). In the new tool catalog
they sell for $86.30 & $100.30, respectively.
   I just had to replace my old ones because they were stolen out of my van
and the Starrett is the one I ordered.
