Agree, Greenlees can be costly. Like others here, I've been fortunate
to have a nice selection of them, although all are not Greenlee
(Seekonk?). I don't know exactly why they're so expensive, these days,
but they are. I recently tried to buy a replacement die for a missing
one in a Whitney/Roper punch set I have. Unbelievable, but the bullet
needed to be bitten! Also... beware of punch sets that are
designed/destined for conduit punch applications. The sizes are not the
actual punch diameter. Rather, they are the "size" to accommodate a
given conduit diameter. I was given such a set and found out,
gratefully, before I tried to use one of them.
