<p>[QUOTE="Mixdenny, post: 647578, member: 6981"]It's possible they are beryllium copper tools made for use in a non sparking situation. I have had a few but mine were larger like shovels and scoops and were marked as beryllium-copper. Yours have thin sharp points and brass does not work well for those uses.
