Title: What are they for?
Post by: IMR4198 on August 05, 2023, 04:17:34 PM: [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ] The fellows who have been around awhile know what these are. Maker is C.S.Osborne from Newark. I will give you one hint. As if you need one, right? The maker generally sells upholstery tools now. This isn't one of them. It is marked with a 7. Best wishes Gary

I bet they would work for that. I have used them for various things through the years, but they were made for another purpose. Do you want a hint? *** pliers. Best wishes. Gary

I do have another of these, but smaller. I will post a photo. Only marking on this one is forged steel. Osborne was marked cast steel. Best wishes. Gary
