[pure-silver] Re: After sinks, your favourite tongs?

> So what are your favourite tongs, why and where do you get them?

I like the Kostiner K601 stainless steel tongs.   7 inches long and 1 inch wide 
so they are 
comfortable to hold.  The top blade has a rubber pad on the emulsion side.  The 
bottom 
blade has no pad, so slips easily under the print.  I've never marked a print, 
even when 
using Nelson gold toner at 110F.

Unfortunately, a quick search didn't turn up a retail supplier.  (Glad I bought 
a spare set.)  
They are (were) distributed by Saunders (Tiffen?).  Not sure what the status is 
now.
