"UNCLE BILL'S SLIVER GRIPPER(TM) TWEEZERS PROUDLY MADE IN THE USA" General Norman Schwarzkopf wrote about the SLIVER GRIPPER after Desert Storm: "I have never had a pair of tweezers in my life that was worth a damn. Now I do and I appreciate it very much." We are the sole manufacturer of Sliver Gripper ™ tweezers, and all Sliver Grippers are distributed from our West Hartford facility.

| Who is Uncle Bill? |
 When Uncle Bill, (there really is an Uncle Bill), designed and patented his unique precision point tweezer, there was nothing like it on the market, or as good...., and there still isn't! Just look at the following unsolicited testimonials. |
| SLIVER GRIPPER(TM) Testimonials |
 "I recommend EL MAR's tweezers for the removal of ticks that cause Lyme Disease because I have found them so remarkable.In my opinion, it is the precision of the gripping points that is so critical when working with tiny objects. I favor a shorter tweezer with a good finger placement at which EL MAR's design excels. Also, a more pointed tweezer has the risk of tearing flesh and/or rupturing the tick, neither one desirable for the person with an imbedded tick. It has become increasingly necessary to check regularly for attached ticks as these small ticks not only transmit Lyme Disease but also 2 relatively new diseases; babesiosis and ehrlichiosis. I also compliment EL MAR for the tweezer holder design that permits the tweezer to be carried easily and safely. The long pointed tweezer design offered by other companies poses the problem of carrying them safely." Ph. D. New Britain, CT "We love your product! Thank you for creating such an intelligently designed & made pair of tweezers. It is products like this that make my life better and easier- my blood pressure and stress level thank you too. Elk Grove, CA "Splinters are a real pain in our business, but we have the very best tool for that also: Uncle Bill's Sliver Gripper. I have never found any other tweezer that work this well.
