I think they're RoboGrip or something very close to that.  I've got one set
and how useful they are depends on what you're doing, naturally enough.  I'd
comment that they seem to be a slick substiture for slip-joint (channel-lock)
type pliers, in which the correct channel-width is automatically slipped down
to, rather than a substitute for locking (vise-grip) type pliers.  IMHO etc ..
