was moved to Asia.I always needed a pair of sheet metal pliers so finally got these.They are great for
their intended purpose and also useful for holding the ends of guitar sides when using a bending iron.
The quality of the tool I received was just fine.A touch rougher than the old version but not as bad as
other reviewers noted.
