What are they called? Are they still legal? Can you still buy them?
ISTM that, especially the screw ones, are much more forgiving on
difficult surfaces than the plastic ones with an obo(?) nail on one side.
They're uninsulated, so no longer compliant for mains use, but
afaik
still allowed for lower voltage.
I've not seen them in decades, no idea where to get them.
