Irwin has utilized the latest metal fabrication processes and plastic molding technologies to come up with this highly appealing, ergonomic, and functional addition to the vast world of water pump-style pliars. I've learned from Irwin that a 16 and 20 inch model is or will soon be available. I have told Irwin to consider a narrower jaw profile to allow more access in confined areas, but do not consider this to be a short coming in any way for the current design. The GrooveLock set provides a precision grip and a comfortable grip for your hand. I consider this new line of pliars to rank with the best of Germany’s premier pliar maker’s.

Excellent fit, function, and construction. <br /> <br />I've already used the pliers in a variety of applications, and will continue reach for these pliers instead of the other 10+ sets of pliers I own...including Crescents and Channelocks. Nice job Irwin! I don’t normally associate Irwin with high quality tools, but in the case of this pliers set I was very pleasantly surprised. Excellent fit, function, and construction.
