I think HF has a version of those but not in the smaller size.

These from Amazon are an inch shorter, but have smooth jaws and are a lot cheaper.

After Matt posted this set of Knipex channel-locks and plier/wrench with the holster —- I decided I needed another set to just keep in the truck.

Tried to buy the tools separately, since I figured I didn't need the holster (I am not a tool geek, well maybe a bit) —- but the set with the holster was a better value price-wise, making the tools cheaper, and the holster free.  Free shipping, and it came in the mail today.

The holster was larger than the tools —- so I was able to also fit in a SOG multi tool, a Remington camp knife, a Smith knife sharpener, and a mag led light. 

This makes a nice compact and capable kit for the console of the truck.

My set came today.  I originally ordered the pair thinking I'd use to Cobra pliers more, but it was the wrench pliers I immediately started using.  These are nice and can get you into tight spots without rounding over any fasteners.
