    Hello Everyone,

    Can anybody help me to identify the manufacturer and origin of these pliers please? I live in England and they would have been purchased by my late father pre 1963. They are wonderful quality and have been in regular use for at least the last 58 years. Thank you from Spiffing

      Thank you to Congcu and TallCakes for solving this for me. Does anyone know how they were imported to the UK please? My father was an early pioneer of the sport of
      stock car racing in this country, see oldstox.com ref. Don Luck, so the pliers might well have a connection with this in some way.

      Very hard to say how things move around. I have a plier collection that contains pliers from The U.K., Germany, Korea, etc. All purchased here in the USA.
