1. A strap tie-down assembly for adjustably binding a strap, the assembly comprising: opposed first and second handles pivoted to each other about an axle configured to windably receive a strap for binding; a lock mounted for movement between a locked position in which the lock is operatively coupled in rigid, contacting engagement with the axle and prevents movement of the axle, and an unlocked position in which the lock is decoupled from rigid, contacting engagement with the axle and thereby allows movement of the axle; an arm carried on the lock; in the locked position of the lock, the arm limits movement of the pawl out of the engaged position; and in the unlocked position of the lock, the arm is away from the pawl and allows movement of the pawl out of the engaged position. 2. The assembly of claim 1, further comprising: a ratchet wheel fitted on the axle;a pawl mounted to the first handle for reciprocal movement between an engaged position with respect to the ratchet wheel in which the pawl prevents movement of the ratchet wheel and the axle, and a disengaged position with respect to the ratchet wheel in which the pawl allows movement of the ratchet wheel and the axle;in the locked position of the lock, the lock prevents movement of the pawl out of the engaged position; andin the unlocked position of the lock, the lock allows movement of the pawl out of the engaged position. 3. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the arm of the lock is mounted for pivotal movement to the first handle. 4. The assembly of claim 1, wherein: the pawl is biased into the engaged position thereof along a first direction; and in the locked position of the lock, the arm is aligned along the first direction. 5. The assembly of claim 2, wherein: the first handle has a top plate, two opposed sides, an open bottom, and a top surface of the top plate opposite the open bottom;the lock is mounted in the top plate; anda keyway for the lock is disposed on the top surface of the top plate. 6. A strap tie-down assembly for adjustably binding a strap, the assembly comprising: opposed first and second handles pivoted to each other about an axle configured to windably receive a strap for binding; a ratchet wheel fixed to the axle; a pawl mounted to the first handle for reciprocal movement between an engaged position with respect to the ratchet wheel in which the pawl prevents movement of the ratchet wheel and the axle, and a disengaged position with respect to the ratchet wheel in which the pawl allows movement of the ratchet wheel and the axle; a lock mounted for movement between a locked position in which the lock is rigidly engaged in contact with the pawl and prevents movement of the pawl out of the engaged position, and an unlocked position in which the lock allows movement of the pawl out of the engaged position; an arm carried on the lock; in the locked position of the lock, the arm limits movement of the pawl out of the engaged position; and in the unlocked position of the lock, the arm is away from the pawl and allows movement of the pawl out of the engaged position. 7. The assembly of claim 6, wherein the arm of lock is mounted for pivotal movement to the first handle. 8. The assembly of claim 6, wherein: the pawl is biased into the engaged position thereof along a first direction; and in the locked position of the lock, the arm is aligned along the first direction. 9. The assembly of claim 6, wherein: the first handle has a top plate, two opposed sides, an open bottom, and a top surface of the top plate opposite the open bottom;the lock is mounted in the top plate; anda keyway for the lock is disposed on the top surface of the top plate. 10. A strap tie-down assembly for adjustably binding a strap, the assembly comprising: opposed first and second handles pivoted to each other about an axle configured to windably receive a strap for binding;a ratchet wheel fitted on the axle;a pawl mounted to the first handle for reciprocal movement between an engaged position with respect to the ratchet wheel in which the pawl prevents movement of the ratchet wheel and the axle, and a disengaged position with respect to the ratchet wheel in which the pawl allows movement of the ratchet wheel and the axle; anda lock including an arm, the lock mounted for movement between a locked position in which the arm of the lock is against the pawl and prevents movement of the pawl out of the engaged position, and an unlocked position in which the arm of the lock is away from the pawl and allows movement of the pawl out of the engaged position. 11. The assembly of claim 10, wherein the lock is mounted for pivotal movement to the first handle. 12. The assembly of claim 10, wherein: the pawl is biased into the engaged position thereof along a first direction; andin the locked position of the lock, the arm of the lock is aligned along the first direction. 13. The assembly of claim 10, wherein: the first handle has a top plate, two opposed sides, an open bottom, and a top surface of the top plate opposite the open bottom;the lock is mounted in the top plate; anda keyway for the lock is disposed on the top surface of the top plate.
