Pliers wrench (first comment) is a very different tool - it is good for grabbing flat surfaces (bolts) without rounding them. I love my pliers wrenches, they are expensive but I haven't found a better alternative - I have bought (and stopped using) a lot of worse alternatives though!

I've never used the Cobras (OP) so I can't speak to them.

There is one alternative, harbor freight has a clone of the 10 inch pliers wrench, no other sizes. I have a pair and they work just as well as my other knipex pliers wrenches at near half the price. Cobras are a step above channel locks. It's not a great deal for these, just an ok price.

Is this a legitimate seller? I'd like to buy a pair of the product is real but without free returns, this seems like it's going to be a headache.

I paid .49¢ more a month ago from this same seller. Item arrived in a timely manner and is genuine.

I bought from global UK a few months ago also. Great pliers to EDC if you're into that. Used them last week checking battery terminals for a guy that got stuck in the parking lot.

The HF version comes in 3 sizes. Is the 10" the only good one?

This is Amazon's UK fulfillment for a lot of European made products. It's legit but don't expect quick delivery.

The HF versions are decent clones but original Knipex is unmatched in quality/performance. This is what you are paying for.

The 10" is the most versatile size, but all three are equal in build/functionality.

These are the small 5" version of Cobra. Just be sure you know what you are getting.
