Wayne & list, The pliers are made by Chris Robinson and sold (I think) by Renner. I bought a pair from Chris 2 or 3 years ago, and yes, they are frightfully expensive. They're also frightfully efficient, however, and I figure they paid for themselves the very first time I used them in the field to remove some keyleads without even removing the stack. The time saved was enormous. If you do much reweighting work, they're just great. They also *install* leads. They are too big for damper underlever leads.
