I'm lucky enough to have a pair of lock-wire pliers - about 40 years old - compliments of my father.

I agree with Weeksy, you can lockwire perfectly well with a cheap set of pliers - if you know what your doing.

To me the most important item is not the pliers but the wire that you use. There are many different grades available and not any old bit of wire will do because it will break when it is twisted too much.

Demon Tweaks do a range of weights and roll sizes depending on the application. I'm sure other people do too.
