Proceeds received in 4 days. These small clothespins, (60 mm length) are nice and solid appearance. Small flat, stainless steel tends to slip between the fingers, the spring being quite firm. It's just a matter of getting started. I personally use these pliers to close packets of coffee, rice, pasta, ... started. It is convenient and aesthetic clothespins "conventional" plastic (and simpler than rubber). The jaws are white plastic, the clamp set in a way that seems effective and give good adhesion to the clip once it placed on a package.
