    Nice reclaim Philip.
    Not being a knife maker either, the pivoting jaw does look like it would be good for griping a tang. A slight "V" grove in both jaws would also seem to me as being useful.
    I hope someday soon to be able to quit fooling around with all of the trivialities of completing my shop and have some spare time to fire up my forge for some serious tong making
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
