Re: Most expensive hand tool I own....
Well my boss finally bought us a vice its an 8" made by Ken Tools (out of a melted down buick I think) its temporary till we get our new budget and he said he will get us a good vice. The guy who broke the last one commented he doesn't think this one will handle a cheater pipe on the handle but a cheap one is almost as good as not having one<br />I used to use mechanic gloves but they wore out pretty quick for what they charge. In my opinion CR Ringers brand are about the best ones made. now I just use a pair of cheap tight fitting leather gloves if needed.
