    Found these excellent end cutters (I believe that's what they are) at an antique shop in southern California. I cleaned them up (not sure if that was a bad idea or not) with a soft sanding attachment on a dremel and made it nice and shiney.
    I can make out "GERMANY" on the inside of one handle, and what appears to be "VOM CI___ & CO 20" on the other.
    I have tried to search online for what company made it and how old these might be, but I have had no luck unfortunately. Any help on identifying this cool German tool would be much appreciated

      Vom Cleff & Co. was a New York City importer (1885-1926) at 105 Duane St. who imported razors and other cutting tools from Germany and England.
