Good looking out. I'll give them a shot... not that the wife will know the difference.

Resurrecting an old thread, I know... but I'm recently in the same boat. Anyone ordered a set of 26 tpi cotter pins lately? Looks like the links in this thread are still up.

The last pins I bought I got from Harris Cyclery, not sure if they still carry them.

Did this too as I have several bikes with cotter pins, the press was justified in my mind.

Death fork? Naaaah!!
I don't consider myself a gun nut, to use your term, but I do believe in calling all tools by their proper names.

I know in America we differentiate between wire cotter pins that you bend to hold in place and these wedge bolts, but I wouldn't call it incorrect to call these bicycle cotters cotter pins like they do in England. Sometimes the Brits make more sense. Like pronouncing the H in herb garden or calling walls paneled when they actually have panels. And...+1 on the BikeSmith cotter press. I also highly recommend his tool for removing bottom bracket fixed cups.
