Wondering if anyone here has run across a pair like this? They look and feel decent enough to at least have something on them but I can't find a mark. Although I did get told buy a guy the other day, who had done work in the plant and his father was a sales rep for a local tooling co., that Estwing's blemished bin used to be free for the taking to anyone that walked by. Maybe this was a similar case?
a photo of the grip design on the handle might help rustyfordgarage.
They look like a knock off of Kraeuter's design.
here is a handle pic

I believe you are right.
I agree they look like a knockoff of Kraeuter and I think they are Bridgeport Hardware.
And the opening of the jaws reminds me of glass pliers.. hmmm.
