Stupid me bought a gimmicky tool like the this Craftsman Extreme Grip reaker wrench [amazon.com] and it broke on the first use. Now I don't even know how to put the spring back into the pivot
I mean, how fast are you using up pliers?

Do I need these? No.. Do I want these/want to try them out?
So you just push the button to release and slide the handle to adjust the jaw size, then push back to lock it in? or is it spring loaded where you push and hold down to adjust, then release to lock in? If you already had a set of old/normal pliers would you still get these?

So from multiple replies, seems like the Knipex is the way to go? I'm not a professional plumber or contractor, but I do have a home and several rental properties that I do a lot of the maintenance & repair on, so I use my tools quite often. Probably wouldn't use these on anything automotive, but I wrench a lot on my cars too, so I understand the value on having the right tools that make my life easier or save time over cost. Thanks again!

Yeah for fasteners as long as you get a good grip on the flat surfaces and it doesn't slip or move when you're turning the other end you're good but sometimes I just rather use an open or closed end wrench specifically sized wrench or socket. It really depends on what you're doing, how much space and grip you have. Holding a nut stationary while screwing on a bolt, I'll use either pliers, vise grips, combo wrench or socket. If its 2 ends that need to be tightened without I'll slip ratchets on both ends and spin them both. I'm sure we can agree the right tool makes all the difference. Thanks!
