Lower blood pressure. Less cussing. More fun. Saves gas. Protects knuckles. Prevents accelerated liver damage. BUY IT.
They call it the "raptor" but I call it Poly, as in the Parrot. It looks like a parrot beak and MAN does this bird ever bite!
The unique design gets its extreme holding power from leverage, not from brute force. Also, it applies pressure directly to the flat-side of the nut or bolt, NOT on the fragile corners like your typical swiss nut-rounder device. That's damn handy when disassembling machines for repair, since it is a nuisance to find a replacement nut for the one you just made fubar.
This thing pays for itself the first time you don't have to drive to the hardware store to find that odd-sized nut or bolt. It also increases your life span by lowering your blood pressure.
In the past, I have seen that odd-stiff rusted bolt problem so many times, I just get prepared to sweat, swear and drink. With these, tough nuts are fun! I get out the hungry parrot and say, "Poly want a rusty bolt?" Then "Poly" chews that bastard bolt into submission in seconds and without bustin' a knuckle.
