Abstract
The present invention relates to pivoted tools such as scissors, pliers, shears, and the like. More particularly, this invention is concerned with pivoted tools having a pair of elongated members and a pivotable joint. The pivotable joint comprises a pair of registering apertures cooperating with a self-compensating unitary pivot member. The pivot member, which is formed when the tool is in closed registered configuration, conforms with the apertures and engages the interior surfaces thereof.
