Review on πŸ”§ GripLock Clamp Pliers by Kenneth Witte

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Misleading name: These are NOT Vice Grip pliers!

I originally bought these locking pliers because the seller says in the title they are "VICE GRIP Locking CW/Flex Pads". You are not. According to the labels (see image) they are marked "AE PRO.USA”. I decided to keep this set of pliers after discovering the misleading description because they are of pretty decent quality BUT even close to the Vice Grips brand. However, it's not worth spending ten bucks to get them back. They are definitely worth 20 for a pair. I'll probably use them as a "whisk". They're cheap enough that I can abuse them and use them for dirty work in applications where I don't want to abuse my REAL vise.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires socket
