Irwin Adjustable Pliers

In having hand tools around, one of the more popular tools are adjustable slip joint pliers.
This is the latest evolution in slip joint pliers. This is the Irwin 2078108 set.

What makes these remarkable is the locking mechanism for the slip joint. The silver button is a spring loaded method of adusting the plier. The fit and finish on these is very good. The offset teeth in the jaws gives excellent grip for the places you use pliers. Available at Amazon

and Lowes

I have that exact pliers set, and I also love them. Can't count the number of times I've used them.
