Late-1930s Kraeuter & Co. “K-Diamond” No. 1380-8 Electricians' (i.e., “Lineman’s”) Side-Cutting Pliers

Cleaned and restored pair of late-30’s Kraeuter & Co. “K-Diamond” No. 1380-8 electricians’ (most commonly referred to as “lineman’s") side-cutting pliers.  While earlier Kraeuter plier handles were often adorned with patterned outer designs and “Kraeuter USA” on the inside, this one is plain handled and only has a single, small, forged diamond in the underside of one handle.
