Re: New Snap Ring Plier Set at Harbor Freight

[ADAM GIBB]

I agree that they snap ring pliers are an infrequent use too, but when I need them, I need them to work welll. I have a set that are in a grey moulded case that folds. They are sold under many brands, snap -on, mac, SK, Craftsman professional and even others. They are all the same set with different names on them. They can often be had on eBay for about $100.00. I bought mine about 10 years ago and have never had an issue. Our maintenance mechanic at work (landscape company) has been wrenching for 40 years and has all of his preferred tools, but still goes to my box for those pliers.
When buying most of my tools, I found that many were just branding schemes and that some of the "lesser brands were just as good as the big ones
