Fiskars 4” slotted tip needle nose pliers

I’m convalescing from a total knee replacement and been looking through all of the online N Scale Magazines. The May 2021 issue has an article about tools.

I’m a fool for cool tools. I tracked down some new old stock Fiskars mentioned in the article on eBay.
I got mine in today and am looking forward to trying them. This is just an FYI in case anyone else is interested.

You have a linky?  I can't seem to find them even after typing in most the item's title.

I would also recommend these from Fiskars. The older grey grip are better as the have a sharp tip. GREAT for etched fret removal, cutting thin metals, wire, etc.

Worth every cent. I have had the same pair for 12 years.

Unfortunately, the photo doesn't really show what the tip looks like, nor is there a useful dimension. How wide are the tips?
Thanks, Otto
