Rob,

There is currently (since 1980?) a company here named Lewis Machine and Tool, (weapons manufacturer) but no relation to the company you are asking about AFAIK.  

The Wiss snips have been a staple here for as long as I can remember. Very common and very popular in the US. And yes, the red and green grips are visual clues to the port and starboard status of the cuts they are designed for. Straight cut snips have yellow grips. (The only pair I own...)  

Edit to add: FREE tools? Yeah,
