Strange Pliers
Does anyone know what these pliers are used for and if they have a special name?

They're known as multifunction welders pliers.
I bought a pair like that at a welding shop about 10 years ago.

MIG welding pliers, tips are for cleaning the nozzle, small hole is for the contact tip, big hole for the nozzle and cutters for snipping the wire. Hammer bit are for hitting the nozzle to knock out the loose spatter.

Well that's disappointing. Now I'll have to buy a MIG welder to go with them.

I think Bob may have meant the TIG welding wire
To grow old is mandatory, growing up is optional.
