Jaws
ToolClip jaws are a massive affair featuring a blunt nose, large serrated gripping section, and huge bypass wire cutters. Being a solid handle design, the moveable jaw is integral with the plier handle.(No hard wire notch is included)
Handle
The solid plier handle has a beveled tip which is intended to function as a prybar. Like the plier jaws, it has a darkened matte metallic finish.
Frame
The frame consists of two panels of stainless steel sandwiched around the pliers and blades, held in place by a number of rivets. A SOG SPECIALTY KNIVES inc logo is stamped into one panel.
Finish is polished stainless.
