Not much better, but the last one I got, I was able to bend the handles to
get into tight spots.  Couldn't do that with my original one, everything on
it was hardened, and only cost $3.99.  

Many years back I was given several for free at various shops, just for the
asking.  They all needed Greenlee chassis punches for round holes (tubes),
and couldn't figure out what to do with something that cut square holes! 
:-))

     Good luck...  M.
