like the look of this though looks like my old hilmor

If it is made (rebranded) by rothenberg it is shyte and robogrips must have been at the top of the shyte list!

If you want a decent set of adjustable cutters look for these

They used to have (well mine have) an alloy handle but i see they are now plastic. I suppose that is what is called progress!
The knipex (K nipex!!! why don't they get someone who can say the word to advertise it) grips in the link above are good (for polished fittings) but no better gripping (infact probably less so) than a set of alligators or cobras. Mine only get used on chrome nuts and the like.
If you want something that will never ever slip because it is an impossibility, use stilsons.

The knipex type are only meant for fittings, no good on a bit of barrel, obviously. Give them a try, really, so much tighter grip than alligators or cobras. I'm working with my buddy today that's got a set, I video a short demo if I can. They are good guys.

stilsons and foot prints lock on end of story but i can see the cam action spanner looks good
