Wow that's bad. I'm happy it lasted. You almost have be be trying to make bad steel for that tool to fail there.

"JCB" brand has nothing to the do with tractors. You're not supposed to use these cheap-shit tools, you're supposed to remove the foil and eat the chocolate...
GoTNeedleandHammer
I disagree, first buy the cheap version of a tool. If you wear it out or use it loads then buy the best version you can afford
mikenco
I completely agree. That's exactly how I've always bought tools. But those JCB tools really are cheap and and nasty. I'll buy a brand like Erbauer if I just want something basic. Jumping to something like Knipex is light and shade better in quality though.

When I first started construction a wise man said to me. "Think about how much work a tool will save you, shop accordingly"
SteamPriest
Get a cheap version to see what it's like, and if it's what you need, then pay for quality. If you end up not using it all that much, the cheap will do. If you manage to break it (from use, not abuse), it's actually worth it to spend on it.
