    Both the Rothenbergers and the Bahcos are excellent I use the large rothys all the time and have compete set. also have the bahcos and are very good too.

    The large pair of rotheys are very well built and strong so they get the most amount of absuse

    Bahco. Got the 10" & 8" ones. Expensive from P.T.S, better from an independant tool specialist.

    Very slim jaw, which can grip well. (like the missus?eh, Know what I mean, nudge nudge)

    I've been using a couple of brandless ones for the last couple of years and they've been really good.
    I paid around £7.00 each for them the key deciding factor being the country of origin.
    One pair are made in Germany and the other in the states. Nether of these countries will produce rubbish tools because their public simply won't buy it if they did.
    So if you didn't want to spend a lot of money you should be able to pick up a bargain by applying this rule!
    Almost a tomstip here!
    A Tappytip even!
