Description: |
The fulcrum point is offset from the pivot point; this allows the handles to remain relatively close to each other while the size range of the jaws varies, and keeps the fulcrum point close to the jaws to increase effective leverage.
Known example marked "GRIPS-RITE" / PAT. 1895314, with no maker name. |
