"The original use for bolt cutters was, as the name suggests, to cut bolt seals from shipping containers at the delivery point." - This is highly unlikely. The Google Ngram Viewer shows the phrase came into use around 1860, a full century before shipping containers were invented. -- Theoprakt (talk) 09:49, 26 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
