FYI, the vise grips are made in non-slave labor Taiwan, not China. IME tools from Taiwan are usually much better than ones from China. Also, Irwin seems to have better quality control on their outsourced tools than some other companies. I have bought a couple of the Taiwan vise-grips (the micro sized ones) and they seem good so far. They are tools that will often work where nothing else will!

I don't mind Chinese garbage, as long as I don't pay much more than $1/lb for it. But I'm with Gary, if made in China carries the same price (like Vise-Grips), I'm not buying it. Is Balo still good?
