I am the granddaughter of The “Uncle Bill”. My mother took over the business when my grandfather retired selling mostly to wholesalers and distributors. One distributor, who many customers are familiar with, is Paul Winchell. He promoted and sold Uncle Bill's tweezers online from Canada for many years to individuals. It was wonderful to observe his steadfast appreciation of the “Sliver Gripper”.
My mother and I have continued to sell mostly to wholesalers. At the end of 2014, Paul decided to retire and gift his clientele to me. Since then my commitment has been to continue to fill orders as efficiently as he has. I am usually able to get orders shipped within 24-48 hours and have enjoyed the back and forth of emails telling many stories of the uses of our Sliver Grippers.
Over the years I have expanded the current website to include excerpts of many articles that were written over the years about the tweezers and my grandfather, as well as describe in more detail the hundreds of uses for this handy tool.
A very special thank you to Paul Winchell and the customers.
