Crescent 5 Piece 5 Inch, 7 Inch & 10 Inch Curved Jaw & 6 Inch & 9 Inch Long Nose Locking Pliers with Wire Cutter - CLP5SETN

Nice solid heavy duty wrench. Gets the job done. Would highly recommend.

If you can afford it, go with the regular brand vise grips. These seem to open by themselves way too often

Others said the same thing, but I was hoping to get lucky... Shame on you, Crescent! Youre supposed to be one of the vanguard tool companies, but this is just more cheap foreign garbage. Ive used them twice now, and the needle-nose pliers quickly shift off-axis, whereupon they fall right off the object (in my case, the classic drum brake tension spring). The little red plastic piece on the locking lever split and started walking off the other set small parrot-like pliers. Both had rough lock engagements, just like the cheap ones I already had in my tool kit. I bought these because locking pliers are one of those last-ditch tools youre probably using when things have already hit the fan. At that moment, you want quality gear that will get the job done before things get worse. These pliers wont be that gear. Theyre just more cheap rubbish.

Im rough w these and they keep up, good buy locks well

As expected with crescent, these are great. I use them everyday in my shop for the past 6 months not a problem

I have yet to subject these pliers to brutal treatment but I think theyll be up to it. Normally Id not review a simple item with many reviews, but Im doing so in this case because of their novel Allen wrench socket in the handle, something Id not seen before. If I set the knurled knob to where it will really clamp down hard, sometimes Id need another pair of pliers to back off on the adjustment knob to open them. But these only require an Allen wrench, which makes it simple and easy to do. Nice!

very nice set. no issues.

They work well, I got them used from AW and they were super greasy all over. My hands end up shiny after using them. But they work, so Im happy.

No negatives on these. It was a great price for a quality set. I’m confident they will last a lifetime.

These are better than the average vice grip, but I’m definitely disappointed with their quality considering their brand name. jaws were quite loose especially on the larger pairs. A few of them had misaligned jaws when they closed and i don’t expect these to wear in well. Would recommend spending a little more for a nicer set
