I am showing €59.50 + €19.85 shipping (Euro) for a total of $84.58 (USD) + Exchange fee. .
Still not a bad price, but it does jump around. The last 3pc set (7, 10 and 12") of same non-padded Cobra's that I purchased were individual from Menard's for less than $80 total with tax and kind of sorry I bought them.
The OP padded version are more comfortable and a lot easier to hang onto in the cold, if wet, greasy, etc. If the only set to be purchased, padded would be my choice.

Still cheaper on Walmart with the free shipping, MaxTool [maxtool.com], the seller on Walmart, has some decent deals now and then.

For especially the newbie that does not have deep pockets, I am going to step out on a limb from experience and owning most of the Knipex pliers that include the plain and padded Cobra sets. If a decent pipe wrench in same length (or the correct open end wrench) will fit, these Cobra pliers stay in the toolbox.
There is no way you can get the effortless grip of a pipe wrench with these Cobra for the effort involved. I have above average hand grip and on tough/tight connections, a decent pipe wrench tight on 3 points is a hell of a lot easier to use. And on square connections like pipe plugs, the right size open end wrench is the first option for not marring it up.
Where the thinner than a pipe wrench Cobra pliers come in handy are tight places you cannot use a pipe wrench, or once you break a tight fitting loose, perhaps use the Cobra pliers to expedite removal with one hand a touch faster.

I have seen Irwin and a few others, but never purchased any. I would think the Irwin Pliers Wrench with pads, if they sell them, would be like the Knipex version and great for plated items with flat sides.
Amazon has the Knipex Cobra Set (7", 10", & 12") on sale for $94.77 instead of $113.68.

He uses pliers in his job and absolutely tortures them. Gives you a good idea of how they hold up in real world work vs some one-time stress test you see on other channels.

170 euros OTD for all 7 wrenches. Seems like a slick deal.
I agree, but from Germany, sales tax is not showing on checkout. Amazon has a lot of different websites, including their Global one that does include local sales tax.
