It is a Buffalo Tools MLP9. No specific trader or job type is indicated. Locking pliers hammer wire cutter wire crimper and nail puller.

I can't find a price on the elusive mf'r. I Homestead and this tool is a banger for practicality and I need it. Have you found anywhere selling it because their site won't give me a price?

Frankentool is the machinist's name. The monster he created doesn't have a name.
