Expandable Italian Pioneer Wire Cutters

Product Description: A nice set of Expandable Pioneer Wire Cutters with Leather Lanyard. They are entirely made of steel. Wire cutters such as this could have been carried by engineers, or by leaders of infantry squads in areas where attacking troops may have been hindered by barbed wire obstacles. The handles of these are expandable, so they can be made smaller for carrying, and made larger for use. There is no manufacturer marking or date. They are functional and likely still could even be used. The leather lanyard on these is permanently affixed, with a rivet. One end could be attached to a soldier’s gear, or when not in use, is held in pace by a small hook on one handle of the cutters. This set of Expandable Pioneer Wire Cutters retains most of the original bluing, though this is worn a bit thin in spots. There is an even patina throughout, with some typical, minor surface rust in a few spots. The overall condition of these Expandable Pioneer Wire Cutters is excellent.
