Review on GEARWRENCH 10-Inch Pitbull K9 V-Jaw Dual Material Tongue And Groove Pliers - 82172C by Patrick Reid

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Tough, but average.

Let me start that these pliers are sturdy and quite functional. However, to expect something special is not necessarily warranted. The jaw grip surfaces are suited to grip large bolt or nuts, while the soft grip in the handle is far less brutal on surfaces that you don’t want to scratch.The size adjustment is relatively coarse, which may not be a major issue for this type of pliers, but the conventional adjustment of opening the handles to a part where there is no structure is a bit underwhelming. I love another set in my toolbox that has a push button release and finer adjustment.Overall, these pliers are strong and fairly conventional. Note the shape of the grip surfaces, as they’re neither flat nor round, but complement hex geometry. But this is not a wrench as there is quite some bite in these jaws.
