Too many, I'll wager.<br /><br />MaryMary - I've always wanted as neat a finish on my work as was possible - long before I started offering anything for sale. I am proud that you consider this useful. :^)) <br />I personally use Lindstrom RX tools, but that is because I have to baby an old wrist break that involved the bones in my hand, too. My Lindstrom cutters are the super Flush variety. The only criticism I have about them is the cutting edge is a bit delicate and dulls more easily than my old cutters. I only use them for fine wire - smaller than 22g. The price on these is a bit steep for tight budgets - but I found the balance of necessary comfort and money an even trade.<br /><br />I still use my old ergonomic flush cutters when needed - they hold a sharp edge well, and fit my hand comfortably. They are made in Italy by C.H.P. - many stores carry them - they have red and black curved handles. The price is really reasonable, too. I like the narrow shap points on these that allow you to get into lots of tight spaces, and are sharp to the absolute tips. <br />Hope this helps you!<br /><br />PerriPerri www.ShaktipajDesigns.etsy.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07142497366790866555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3776942134522815144.post-64182144978616314672009-07-22T03:33:27.032-07:002009-07-22T03:33:27.032-07:00I am so happy I found you.
