I was in Lowe's tonight and was looking at the tools as I usually do. I
noticed for the first time that the majority of the "Vise-Grips" they had
were now made in China. I ask a salesman and he said the plant in Nebraska
had been shut down and the American made ones were in short supply. In my
old age I have just quit buying chinese tools (life's too short for junk)
and now stick to American made ones. They are the best in the world,
overall, and even though they cost more, my grandchildren will still be
using them 50 years from now. I bought the last set of "quick release"
American made Vise-Grips they had. With these two new ones, the other four
I have should be the last I need. If you feel the way I do, then you better
pick some up before they are all gone. Whats next, Channel Loc?
