Hatt and others who may be interested: I checked out a boat yesterday that was passing through, and near the rigging station across the cockpit from the stern controls, there were 5 holsters mounted containing..........5 sets of Van der Staal pliers

I asked the captain (who was riding with the hauler--precious cargo--Buddy Davis) how much they cost and he said around $400.00/pair and they are made out of titanium. Dude, that is like buying a diamond necklace for a dog. I didin't even know VDS made those.
