Those old Diamond tools are hard to find, even harder in good condition.
I looked for several years to find the two pliers I have. They are great tools!

About two years ago I bought two Diamalloy pliers in a house clearance shop. Paid € 10.- each.
I now understand that was a rare find.

I recently bought two pairs of pliers,  6" Diamond and 8" SK.  They both have green vinyl grips - (they were torn and I cut them off).  They are completely identical other than the branding.  This was news to me.  I like Diamond tools.

Here are the two I have. I wouldn't mind completing the set.

Is this the style you're looking for? I can get you the part numbers if that might help.

These pliers came that way when new. I sold tons of them in the hdw store in the 1970's and even the 1980's.
