H.K. Porter 18" Bolt Cutter - Replacement Handle

[Conductor562]

Looking for a replacement handle for these bolt cutters. I'm not having much luck tracking down an email address. I'm not sure what type of warranty they had originally, but the are the older USA made version. Any ideas of a part source?

The only service parts they list are the the jaws and the cutterheads, no handles.
If you cannot warranty them, it may be best to toss the handles and sell the cutterhead by itself.

They are owned by Cooper Tools which is now part of the APEX group

This wouldn't of happened with H.K Porter tools forged in their Boston, Mass plant! That plant closed in the late 1980's. I have tools made their that are over 100 years old! My dad worked there as a machinist! He never would let that pass inspection!

I have two pair of those they are the rear big ones, one home and one at work and they are fantastic and also ornate as well.
