    Channellock 758 (flush cutting pliers) defect?

    - Just out of curiosity, what's the cost to deal with this? Did Channellock Customer Service say that you had to pay the postage? - If you attempt sharpening, does that void the warranty? - Items like these : I have duplicates of the styles. Not necessarily the same brands.

    6 + 4 = 10?. Gimmick of that age? I may have tried them on hex heads when I was growing up without much money. Personally, I wouldn't use them now on hex heads unless I were really desperate.
