I have forwarded several technichians plier heads in original clamshell in the past from a german seller to different members. Maybe one who bought several shows up and is willing to part with one of them.

Sorry, I don't have spares of either of those to sell separately (I'm using the ones I have to make up full MP650 kits with all 5 different plier heads:  Std needle-nose, EOD needle-nose, blunt nose, technician, cable cutter). 

The SS EOD (cap crimper) pliers head only seems to have been sold with the full "military" kit, I've never seen them for sale separately.  A possibility is to buy an MP600 EOD (either genuine or the cheap Chinese copy) and harvest the plier head - it will need a small amount of grinding on the pins, but then fits and works OK.  Of course it will have the BO finish, not the original SS.

If it helps, the Gerber part number for the Technician plier head is # 48281.  This is the same plier head as the MP600 Fisherman (but I think that would be a very expensive way to get one).

If you are interested, I know a place that has the civilian version of the MP650 for sale. I'd be willing to foward it if you would like.

Guys I wanted to thank you for all your replys. My wife found a military version with technician and blunt tip plier head on Craig's list at a reasonable (i.e. Doesn't know what he's got price). I still don't have the original military tech kit bag or EOD plier head so if you have one for sale or swap please let me know. Been collecting and using MTs for years and have a few duplicates so I'll keep my eye out and try to take care of you guys as well.

I'd rate $125 as a very excellent price, well done to your wife  :tu:

Yeah, it got too rich for me once it topped $200.00 (and it still had a long way to go).  The MP650 set with EOD pliers and large pouch seem to be getting rarer, so I guess the price will remain high for any offered on the open market.
