What would you say if you wanted to ask someone if they had any? -- "Do you have boltcutters?"

Probably "Do you have any boltcutters?" However, given that we've managed a cumulative 86 years without ever needing to cut a bolt, it's not a question that we've ever had to consider before. (Still, it's a useful thing to have prepared, just in case we come across Paul Dacre tied to a chair with his fingers left free.)

And I should have mentioned earlier, Henry is either a steam engine or a vacuum cleaner, but not boltcutters.
