Hey guys,

Been using Bahco adjustables since I started my career a few years back. I bought a new set of the 8" wide jaws and noticed that they wasn't as good as the ones I bought say around 2005. They seem to lock up etc.

Anyway I noticed that IREGA have got a set of 8" wide jaws out, seen them on Ebay. Wondered if anyone had used them and if they were good? I got a 15" adjustable made by IREGA and got to say their quite nice.
 
I get lock-up issues with my Bahcos sometimes too, also the jaws aren't quite parallel

Yeah its really annoying! Gonna try those IREGA's I think. Just stick the crappy Bahco set in my 2nd hand kit.
 
It is a crying shame as Bacho used to be the dogs nut's, but since they where bought out by irwin, which was subsequently bought out by snap-on, the quality has gone right down the pan! me thinks snap-on want you to buy there's, but at there price! think i'll give it a miss.
