It is such a shame they don't make them anymore.. I carry a regular Vise-grip with me all the time but the 5wr toolbox will be really really nice!

Thank You my five girls chipped in and bought it for me one year for fathers day. I think it cost 25.00 dollars at the time that was big money or maybe i did not have much money at the time and it seamed like a lot to me.

Most of you guys know what i am talking about when you have kids they are always in need of something. So thats were most of my money went. I always though of it as a labor of love.

good luck, shcrade made three models but each model had two different implement options. there are 6 models total. I have one of each and love them. the needle nose comes with a can opener on one model and the other has a scrapper blade I believe. the 5wr came with a clip point blade or another model came with a warncliff / sheep foot's blade.

I didn't know there are that much variations!

Does anyone want to do a trade with this 6WR I just got for your 5WR??

I just prefer the smaller 5WR for an everyday carry.

I posted a couple of eebaay auctions I had found for the needle nosed version which is the Schrade ST6HP. The less expensive one got bought by someone, hopefully one of us. There is still a Schrade ST6hp up for "Buy it now", doesn't look like it comes with a sheath or anything, but the tool looks in great shape. A little pricey if you ask me, but not horrible since they are hard to come by. Here's the link:

But to be completely honest. I think people are money and versatility ahead by having a good multi-tool paired with a separate 4 or 5 inch vise grip and pocket knife. That's what I do, but you ain't me either.

Best of luck with your search.

Not my sale, nothing to gain or lose.

Tell me about it

Couple of things I have learned while finding the various vise grip type tools is what to search for. I have had some success using these three terms:

1) vise grip - proper term
2) vice grip - because some folks don't get the difference between "vise" and "vice". "Vise" is for something that clamps, "vice" is something you do/have to annoy your wife.

3) locking pliers

Throw in Schrade somewhere maybe as well.

Best of luck!
