I've got and use Lobtex, Fujiya, and TOP, adjustable wrenches. Use them at work. Haven't let me down yet. Also have Bahco, and various private labels made by Irega and Western Forge. Not to mention old USA made Crescent. I recently scored a 15" NOS Wright adjustable that was made by WF for a grand total of.............$10.

TOP, might be the best out of the Japanese brands, but you really can't go wrong with any of the Japanese brands mentioned.
I have a irega/channellock in 8" - tempted to get a top/lobtex in 10/12 - how do they compare to a western forge? I remember using a proto 710 and it was....fine?

Compared to the WF adjustable wrenches I have. I find TOP blows WF out of the water IMO. TOP just takes tolerances, and the over all finishing to another level. I'd put Fujiya somewhere between TOP and WF. With said, I have plenty of WF wrenches in my arsenal, and happily use them on a regular basis. Same with my Irega wrenches.
