It's been in a marine environment for 15 years; lots of rusted and rounded-off bolt heads and nuts. I saw this pair of vice grips at O'reilly's. Maybe they've been around for years, but i've never seen them. They work unbelievably well, much better than the regular style vice grips. "My life is better than your vacation"

I keep it in my boat. What I use it for is very temporary impromptu mooring. When fishing I will clamp the vice grips to a branch or docking ring or any other thing handy and attach a line with a carabiner. Easy , simple , cheap and it works good. NRA benefactor member
