I don't have one, but here's the information. Farrells 1-800-438-3543.

Rivet Knockout and Rivet Setting Tools: $39.00 + $2.00 shipping.

Kit for attaching reeds with screws and nuts: $60.85. This kit
includes:
70 reed screws, 70 reed nuts, 3/64" drill bit, nut driver set, small
jewelers file, Pinvise, countersink, special adhesive, special adhesive
remover, step by step directions.

By the way, there are people who repair broken reeds for what seems to
me to be a reasonable fee. Hohner. Bill Romel (Custom Craft
Harmonicas) charges about $6.00. I think Christian Michalek (?) also
does repairs--Chris? Dick Gardner (sp?).
