Vintage Utica 50-8 linemans pliers, good condition: $9.50
Here's a pair of Utica lineman's pliers, model 50-8, in good condition. Overall length is 8 1/4".These had some surface rust when found, which was removed, revealing a darkened surface with some light pitting.The cleaning also removed the Utica trademark, which, unfortunately, in these later versions is no longer stamped but screened on. See pic #3.The metal has some dings and marks, but the jaw serrations are still clear and sharp, and the wire cutters work fine.The lap joint rivet is a little loose, but the amount of play doesn't affect functionality at all.The two-color hand grips are unusual - I hadn't seen this type previously. They could be replacements, but they look like they may be original, and they're in great condition;The price reflects the lack of trademark and the slightly loose rivet, but this tool will still give good service for many years.
