If it looks like a dusk, quacks like a duck, there's a good chance it is a duck. And they are perfectly standard good quality side cutters.

Sadly you seem to be unable to convince *anyone* reading here. Wonder what that says? -- *Why do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack?

Yet Jason pointed out that 'tie wire' used in concrete rebar assembly is at least one instance of 'soft steel' being made into wire. It may not be 'lock wire', but it is 'wire'.

And there are plenty of them too. You really are going south in your old age, OR you have always been this stupid.
