wow.
Good to see others have sheet metal tools about.
My granpappy's toolbox has em in it. (offset shears, 60 and 80 degree pairs) <stowed in mom's basement at the moment> and it dates back to the 1890's, since it was *his* da's. And it has a pair of leather shears with the same feature.
(I periodically raid that toolbox, if only for the wood planes. Best damn planer I've ever used, and ... its *made* out of wood, what type I do not know)
Biting the hand that feeds IT
