ABSTRACT:
A pair of snips including first and second, opposed, elongated members, each member comprising a jaw at a front end portion thereof, a handle at a rear end portion thereof, and a midportion where the members cross over each other. A pivot unites the midportions for scissor-like movement of the handles and jaws about the pivot. The snips also includes a gripper biasely connected to the handle of one of the members to retain a portion of a workpiece severed by the snips. The first member includes a metal plate having a forwardly extending blade which comprises one of the jaws and a rearwardly extending tang. According to the invention, at least the handle of the first member and gripper are made of a moldable material molded onto the metal plate, such that the handle of the first member is molded onto the tang of the metal plate and the gripper is integral with the first member and molded onto an outer surface of the plate. The moldable material is most preferably a plastic, but other moldable substances could be employed.
