I bought this without expecting too much given the low price, but I was disappointed. I've had them for a few weeks with light use. When they arrived, I noticed that the tips of the pliers didn't meet flush, which should have been my first warning sign. Within a few weeks, the tip began to rust and got closer and closer. In fact, it wasn't stored in a humid place either. It will be kept in a nice cool/dry place with the rest of my tools. Of course I won't buy any more and I'm a little annoyed because I was lazy and the return period has expired.
