Hello Listers,

On a property we were visiting recently we were shown a small hand tool known as a phleme. This would have been carried by vets in the past.
Does anyone know if there was an Australian manufacturer for these implements. I have found them in an 1822 list of tradespeople in Sheffield UK.

If anyone would like a photo of this tool off list please contact me at

Thanks
Marcia penny
