They do slide past the bevels on the hog-rings, so to be completely closed,
but you should talk to Frank Gibson of Memphis Net and Twine to be sure of
the implement and he is the most knowledgable source of information there,
as a matter of fact, he is the General Manager and is the "go-to" person....
Please tell him I sent you.......Memphis Net and Twine has donated items for
the NANFA raffle so please give him some mention....Call 1 (800) 238-6380
for his personal assistance!
Best Regards,
BG
