Of course they were all stainless steel and free.
Your dentist or docs office is a great place to get tools. I have been getting my forceps, scissors and tweezers there from day one. Once they are worn out for MEDICAL uses they are often disposed of. Just make sure they are cleaned and run through the sterilizer first though. Would hate to get Hep or any number of other diseases while tying etc.
