HTS 170C0 4.75" Curved Stainless Steel Stamp Tweezers

I ordered this tweezer for a purpose of picking out very closely seedlings when they grow sticking together. So this tweezer works as what I want

Nice and works great!

Nothing special. It’s just a tweezer, as I expected. And arrived quickly.

These work well for the most part but the tongs are a little think. I lost my good set of 30 years and ordered these to replace. I don't regret, but they aren't as good. I recommend taking a file or a block and sand paper and flattening the bottom tong to an almost sharp edge so i will be easier to slide under the stamp with out risk of damaging the edge. That done and I'd give them 5 stars instead of 4.

I love these angled tongs. They are so much more efficient and safer for handling my valuable stamps than any straight-line tongs I have ever owned. The reasons are twofold. First and most important, we are almost always using stamp tongs at an angle, so the tong head angle matches the angle that we meet the stamp. For example, yesterday I was removing some classic US issues from an old album to mount into my own album. Some were in mounts and some were hinged, but both were much more secure with the angle of these tongs because I approached the stamps at a slight angle to the flat page. Likewise when I mounted the stamps in mounts in my album, the mount was flat on the page, but my hand was above the page, so the angled tongs allowed me to keep the stamp in line with the mount because of the angled tongs.The second reason is the nice flat and rounded shape of the blades of thee tongs. There is no chance of catching a perforation, creasing a stamp, or in any other way causing damage even to very old and delicate stamps. These definitely have become my favorite pair pf stamp tongs to use!

Great

Very poor quality. You would do better to fold over a paper match stick and use it for tweezers. i. e., they have no spring tension. They're like a piece of folded over tin. Don't waste your money on these. Bite the bullet and purchase hospital grade tweezers. Gooooood night...

These tongs are a lot shorter than another pair I already owned. I bought this one because of the curvature. The problem is that they do not pick up stamps easily. I have to squeeze them to pick stamps up. Sorry, I honestly can't recommend them
