Some old antique and vintage pliers I have.

 

[Kasal]

I will play, this is one of the drawers that I like the most in my toolbox (I think it is because of all those colors)

This is about 80% of mine. I have a Channellock/pipe wrench drawer and other pliers on my workbench, toolcart, in my work tools, and a few others.

This is like the first day of gym class... I'm feeling so inadequate!

 

[Levaughn]

Too many to place neatly.

You heard it here first folks, four.cycle felt very inadequate the first time he had to change in front of other guys for gym class.

You only have one drawer of pliers? SHAME!

^ well.... I have one drawer in a little 'Rally' box that's jammed full of pliers... the others are scattered all over the place. I really need to get that rolling tool cart thing out of the living room and into the garage...

I have my "clean work"/electronics pliers laid out flat in a small drawer. The yellow ones are Vaco, most of the rest are Xcelite:



I have my "specialty pliers" in a drawer below, crimpers, datacom stuff:



And then I have a drawer in my larger box with all of the larger pliers. Linemans, groove joint, vise grips, cable cutters, hose pullers, etc:

 

[Supplex]

first pic are my vise grips

Second is the plier drawer of my road box

Third is the general plier drawer that sits above the vise grips
There are a few more more specialty pliers I’ll wrangle up

Here's a sampling of some of my favorites.

Here is an odd p[air of dykes I picked up last weekend branded "Lakeside" adn my only Lakeside pliers. I was surprised as my inventory has other Lakeside tools but only one per category: BP Hammer (10 oz), adjustable (crescent style, 12"), DBE wrench, (1/2 - 9/16). A vise lake side - two words, so a different co.) (homeowners, on the welding bench).

Without a physical search I can't recall if any others have the same script (maybe the BP hammer).

Does anyone recognize the grip pattern? I'd guess these were made buy one of the bigger Pliers companies, the Pentagonal pin head is also an indicator (round on the far side) Inside the grips are marked "Made in USA" inset panel, raised letters

For those of you who can’t get enough pictures of pliers, there is another thread in the vintage forum.

Pliers; How Many Is Too Many?

Pliers are easy to dismiss and misplace. Eventually you need one. Or find another one at that sale . . . Craftsman Water Pump Pliers, Non-Slip
