While we're on this subject, are BIX blocks often used elsewhere in  
the world besides Canada? Up here, there's not many fans of 110  
blocks. The de-facto standard, at least in BC, is to use BIX blocks.  
All the copper work I do in the datacenter I work in is with BIX (and  
Giga-BIX) terminations, our office phone and data cross-connects are  
BIX. The telephone company also demarcs their feed into the building  
on a wall of BIX blocks. The tool makes a lot more sense, using a  
metal-on-metal scissor blade to cut the excess wire, rather than  
relying on a metal blade using the plastic block as an anvil to cut  
the wire off.
