Pliers from Channellock (model 430). Forged high-carbon steel with laser-hardened gripping teeth.
What kills a pair of pliers is the jaw teeth rounding off, after which they polish bolts instead of turning them. Channellock laser-hardens the gripping edges so they keep biting for years, and the channels hold their setting under load rather than slipping a notch when you lean on the handles.
