Bone cutters

[jahel318]

Anyone know of a local place in New Tampa where I can buy bone cutters and Japanese wood chisel for fragging?

I don't like bone cutters for fragging. I use a tool from HD works great. Will try and get a pic on them for u.

sorry about delay. I have 2 pictures cause not all of these open up this much. you want the ones that open all the way like this. I have been using these for almost 3 years not. some rust but they open and close great still. make sure you get stainless steel or you will be getting new ones often. I can clean these up to be like new again!!!



see how much they open. great for cutting thick corals.

Thanks! What's the exact name of this tool and who is HD?

They're called diagonal cutters. HD is home depot.

Those are commonly called diagonal cutters, side cutters, or "dykes" - should be available at any home improvement store (HD is likely Home Depot)

They will probably be in the electrical area.

You can also check harbor freight, buy a few pairs for what you'd spend on one pair at HD.

I have tried harbor freight these rust in days. U need to find a high quality stailess steel pair to slow the rusting down. Yes HD was home depot. Make sure they open alot some brands do not. U dont want the ones with thicker jaws either they just get in the way.

Thank you for the alternative tool roger!

no problem just now I have bone cutters also and they never leave the drawer they do not work as well. Nor do they last as long before rusting
