I can't be the only one here who likes a particular tool or idea but wishes they also made this version or changed this one thing about it.

There are two I've been thinking about recently that come to mind.

First I wish the Snapon 44acf that I carry in my pocket had cutters, it's a standard thing basically every pair of slipjoint pliers ever has but they specifically chose to eliminate them.
I get by, but it's something I occasionally find myself missing.

The second thing, I want WILDE to introduce a 4" pair of their flush fastener slipjoints.
Either that or Snapon has to add cutters and introduce a flush fastener.
The rivet on the 44ACF ( I think they recently became the 44pcf ) is fairly low profile, but flush would be even better.

I have a hammer addiction,  and a 1/4 ratchet addiction, and a pry bar addiction,  and a screwdriver addiction, and well I just have an addiction to hand tools in general.
