My snips are right cut, because I'm left handed, the left cut and straights I keep at home, where I don't have time pressure to get it right. My slip joints are total junk from a junk shop, the smaller blue handle ones are SK...the junk ones last for years. My snap rings are Snap-on, can't see them, 3 pairs of SK circlip pliers and some no brand. It's a mess, but I usually have no trouble finding what I need. With everything being different, you know what you are looking for, if they were all the same brand they would look alike.
