Thank you for clarifying that you're serious, because I really was going to ask. I had a friend who loved the things and carried the small ones with him on his belt all the time. By the way, they're on sale at Sears this weekend.
I use mine all the time and they work great. I don't understand why so many people don't like them. I bought a really big pair of them at the flea market last week there were made by Ridgid but they were the exact same pliers.
