[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1803206, member: 18945"] I gave our old set away as a gag gift several years ago. (To my niece who was divorcing her husband at the time) That pair Belonged to my father bought at the old Thomas Bros Feed in Liberty County Tx in the early 60s and were Burdizzo brand but I hadn't used them in a very long time. To be honest, I didn't think anyone still used them. Their use was still taught in vocational ag in the highschool I attended in the mid to late 60s but I bet they aren't even mentioned nowadays. They had their place [B]and time[/B], but in my opinion, both are gone. Banding (IMO) is so much easier and faster. I may be completely out of it here but I seems to remember they had different sizes for different animals. One size for calves, another for sheep and even one for horses, with the handles being different lengths and the distance from the crimping jaws to the pivot point different too.?? [/QUOTE]
