I've never heard of the Bora brand. Are they a big deal, or just another ChiCom brand?

Their clamp edges are top notch.i just used one to cut new wood doors for my house...im going to assume these are great quality

i'm not sue and too tired to check, but i THINK those are the same as the craftsman and channellock ones....maybe. idk.

As far as I know, the craftsman ones are made by Wolfcraft. At least the four I bought earlier this year were. They are great, however this is tempting considering the price.

Im curious as to how these compare to the Irwin style clamps? I have a lot of those from the last ~6 yrs of buying them and find the Irwins to be really good?

Anybody have input on both styles?

The Bora edge clamps and spring clamps work well, but I can’t say the same for Bora pistol grip bar clamps. I purchased several on sale from Woodcraft… two broke the first time I used them -- they couldn’t take the clamping force that I applied. My Irwin’s are much better.

Thank you for the update. They look cheaper in the photos but I havent had any hands on with them.
I do have the competitors edge clamps and while very handy, the clamp mech is not the most user friendly after wearing out the bar it using to cam lock on.

I got mine in the other day, they seems pretty decent, however I did not need 10 of them so I am going to split them up and give some out for gifts
