Anyone got these pliers ...

I came across these on eBay uk (NOS). They were cheap so I took a punt on them. I've been looking for a pair of slip joints for a while and these came up. I rather like the old Skool cast look to them and the slight offset to the head. They're like a hybrid type of pliers ... It's unusual for European tool manf.'s to make pliers in the predominantly American style, Knipex only just releasing their Twin Grip. Please let me know what you think of these pliers if you've ever used them or own a pair. I recall seeing them somewhere in 'tools of the old world'.
