Here's a couple of old pliers I found
1) No makers markings but is 10" long. Possibly some kind of Linesman's pliers? It has 3 wire cutters plus coarse and fine serrations on jaws and a cut-out in one jaw at it's tip.
2) Klein & Sons, Chicago, U.S.A. Using a magnifying lens I can see that the hinge is also stamped Klein Tools Est 1857 Trade Mark and what looks like a man up a pole (linesman?). The jaws have cross hatching (like a double-cut file). Length - 6 1/2". Handle coverings placed there by my grandfather, so I'm not removing them!
