Crescent Pivot Pro Pliers

[Farmall 1066]

Stopped at TSC the other night to get some nozzle dip for my welder.
Came across a set of needle nose pliers and side cutter for $8. I was intrigued so brought them home. Definitely not old school quality but not too bad, I guess time will tell.
Anyone else have these?

Farmall 1066,

You got a steal on both model pliers! I purchased the side cutter for double the price at Home Depot.

I had to go through more than half a dozen packages at Home Depot to select mine due to machining defects of the cutters and improper tip alignment. I love my side cutter for the price! I own both the Crescent and NWS Fantastico models. Granted, I have not put both of them through tough use. Both models have performed equally well. The Crescent cost me half as much as the NWS. However, the build quality and the looks of the NWS easily beat out the Crescent. The Crescent resides in my trunk toolkit and the NWS is at home.
