I haven't been able to replace two of them from any regular hardware supplier that I sould find and there's quite probably someone out there who could tell me where I could order them. The first is that cute little tool used for punching down wires on punch-down blocks. (a puncher-down?) The second has a similar purpose except it's used on the older boards on which screw terminals are used. (A standard boltdriver type thing could be used here but the telco-provided model was much more useful in this particular environment.)
