Wow, all I can say is WOW!!!! I have been holding out on buying locking pliers as I am not interested in the overseas made irwin vise grips. And I just couldn't quite bring myself to buying a competitive brand from europe. I have been buying used from flea markets and pawn shops for way too long. I love the story of how these are built in the old visegrip plant. Kudos to Malco for investing the time and money to make a quality piece here in the states. I am so excited

I should have showed the teeth after standing on the metal pipe, they still looked flawless. I dug into a few grade 8 bolts and torqued into them with the hex adjustment and they held up. Only time will tell but the seem spot on👌🏻

I like the Idea of being able to put an Alan Wrench on the Screw that makes a big difference in how much torque you can apply

Finally, it's been a long time coming. I was bummed when they were first offered from Snapon for like $80. I almost ordered a pair, but I knew Malco would roll out the standard production soon enough. I didn't think they would do much besides open up the old Peterson factory and reintroduce the original pliers, but I'm glad that they actually made some real improvements.

Awesome news, so glad to see them brought back to USA! I will have to buy a pair!

3:30 What are the thread sizes for the adjusting screws on each of these pliers??

This gives me hope for our country. It's getting hard to find anything made in the USA any more. I will be buying some of these. Not because I need them, but to support US manufacturing. I recently bought some Wilde pliers from Bomgaars for the same reason. Made in Kansas IIRC. You should review these if you haven't already.

Ok that pipe grip is impressive

I find it hard to buy these at all anymore after having the knipix plier wrench.... but we're do you buy these?

I bought the 10inch. It’s awesome . Just get it. First rate.

Went to the website filled out an information form. How.do I buy these? I've been using Malco tools for over 20 years and still am using the same tools i bought over 20 years ago for sheet metal and rain gutter. High quality that lasts!

I put them in my cart on Monday at work but by the time I got off work they were sold out. I check a few times today and finally back in stock. Well...the 7” without wire cutters were sold out. So I order the 7” with wire cutters and the 10” without.

I lost my cheap pair of pliers and I’m really considering getting these cuz then I won’t want lose it and the quality is going to be amazing

good news ! the locking pliers production is back in the usa ..

Im looking for 4" vise grip made in usa. Cant find. Im looking for new old stock irwin or petersen but only founded needle nose model. I need these regular jaw.

Currently the launch 4/19 will start with the 7” and 10” Curved and Straight jaw locking pliers.

I learned years ago different companies are the best at making certain things like Milwaukee for power tools knipex for pliers snap-on or arguably a few German companies for ratchets sockets and wrenches..

I had found out that Malco’s will be no more their closing the plant in Dewitt Nebraska I think what hurt them was the really high prices but I’m just thankful I was able to buy 2 of them so I can have USA vise grips that will last me for the rest of my life hopefully maybe Snap On will buy the plant and continue to manufacture USA made vise grips because if they don’t then there will be no USA made vise grips again which will really suck.

I have a pair of locking pliers called Leverwrench. They belonged to my grandfather and are probably 40 years old. They automatically adjust to size and have an adjustment for grip pressure.

The nickel finish is like chrome and you have to get it just right to get a good shot and not a glaring reflection. They work just as good as the look👍🏻

Sweet, those bad boys have some bite with those teeth!! I can't tell you how many pairs of vise grips I've worn the teeth off of when I was still wrenching at the Dealership!!!

Just curious, have you heard of anyone cryo-hardening one of these? If not, I'm thinking about trying. A good test would be to have two, cryo-harden one, and then set both to the task of using the wire cutter to cut through heavy nails, and see if one outlasts the other.

Where can I get a set?

Finally a decent pair of vice grips. The part at the end, where it is threaded, that's where my pair failed me, and now I have a hose clamp on it, to cut me while I use them. They were some off brand, can't remember exactly. I have a actual "vice grips" brand one and it works good. I am ashamed to admit after using vice grips for decades, I never thought to tighten the adjuster screw once tightened. LOL maybe that's why I have a love hate relationship with them. To me, when I use them, it's already a bad day. It means something is rounded off or I broke the head off a bolt...So they need to be "throw proof" as well. Dragging them down a road for half a mile should abuse them even more than me.

What the warranty on Malco pliers ? Say jaws get chewed up and flattened out.

If they could do like Milwaukee did with theirs and put one that has an eyebolt on the the screw,sometimes I have to hook a chain fall to it to pull something that is stuck.

Some Snap-On + 🦅Grips are identical.

The Malco's needed a touch of lube out of the box. a drop of lite oil on the pivots, and a lite touch of Lucas Red N Tacky on the threads of the adjustment screw. (To be fair, the Irwins have had 40 years to get buttery smooth though) The teeth on the Malco's are nice and sharp. The malco's are a touch heavier, but that's fine. The finish on the Malco's is beautiful, and actually seems better than what the original finish on the Irwins was. I like the hex on the adjustment screw. Overall-- very happy I snagged them.
