I'm just chilling waiting for the Manchester derby to start, and came across this, I have to say it was far more fascinating and enjoyable than I thought it would be, also "John Collier" was the window to watch when I was a kid :o)

Great to hear Mr. Collier and this history. I can't understand why the 300M isn't more popular - it's a superb tool, the only cutter I know of that can cut as little as 2 - 3mm off a copper tube.

the ratchet, is one of my favorites, it's a shame that copper pipe clips, are not made so that you can use the pipe cutter in situ,.I used to be a direct labour plumber in the South London hospitaal for women, at Clapham south, and used to go across the road to Monument tools place, on Balham hill, and get tools, they were top quality, this is back in the 70's - 80's, I still use them. there was a helpful man in the office with a beard,.I have not forgotten him, and Collier's, Cold Harbour lane, Brixton, and a great plumbers merchant down the hill called " Beardson & Co who had very thing you ever needed.

I'm desappointed with your olive puller, iv had to replace it 6 times already. The starting part of the thread part brakes, I think you need to redesign the tool.
