Amici,
Paratools can be pretty much a hit or miss depending when you purchased them. I purchased mine in...... 1995 I believe when it was made in the USA and I notice on the rear of the handles where the pliers head meets, that there are two "divits" or dents that were made when the handles were originally cast. It does nothing negative and not even ugly to look at but they're there.. How ironic since I used the tool today securing parking space placards to a wire fence using the big "P" in all it's folding pliers head glory...
Cheers,
Serge
