Closer to the jaws, anvil or cutter ?
Need to order a replacement and don't remember which is which.
Thanks in advance.

replace both

That wasn't my question and & $35.00 each I'll just get the 1 since the other half is fine.

Ronnie ,

Look at the inserts , one is flat on the cutting edge the other is more to a point the flat is the anvil the pointed one is the cutter. beware i heard a while back there was a bad run of these parts , the design is such that the large hole for the screw weakens the insert being Tungston Carbide .


Good Luck

VS made and released new cutters late fall, early winter last year.
