BHM Bernards

A confused fellow...
...also does not know what he really has...

BHM *lost* the infringement suit by Bernard , and they were restrained from making any more...

I have never seen these before...
Just a weathered light rust/WD40 mix patina.

Yup, nothing medical about those. And they do look exactly like the Bernards. I can see why Bridgeport would have lost the infringement lawsuit.
My friends call me Bob. My wife calls me a lot worse.

I always called them parallel jaw pliers also. I've had Bernards & Sargent, they both look very similar. Never came across Bridgeport.
