I'm willing to wager that you were never in the Navy. I know Bob was &
I have heard other Navy guys call them forceps. Different lingo in
different circles. Given theat the tool isn't used to ply anything,
forceps might even be a more accurate term. Sorry that the world
doesn't conform to your expectations.

If someone at work ask to borrow my forceps, he or she would get a deer in
the headlight look. However, third drawer down on the right is my CLECO
pliers. Oh yeah, 23 years in the NAVY.
