I was in Mikes yesterday and he only has a pair left. He did mention that they made replaceable parts for them.
I am tempted to buy some extra cutters to try to cut a hook with but I'll save that untill the offseason. Till then I'll carry a set of Manleys in the car just in case.

Just make sure you can get the screws out before you try and cut a hook with them. If they are not lubed they might be siezed up already.
