Condition:
Pre-owned and in rugged vintage working shape. Both tools have been thoroughly inspected and are fully operational. The hardened right-angle teeth show typical cosmetic wear from honest field use but retain strong biting edges with plenty of grip left. The adjustment pivot pins transition cleanly through the guidance tracks without catching or freezing. The original blue-coated surfaces display authentic garage weathering, a natural dark metallic patina, minor surface oxidation around the joint rivets, and some typical light rubber chew/peeling on the very tips of the handle bases as pictured. (Note: Unboxed/loose item configuration).Shipping & Handling:
Ships safely, comes securely packed with thick layers of protective bubble wrap padding inside an envelope. Please evaluate all photos closely to review specific condition traits, and feel free to reach out with any questions before purchasing!
