Default Safety Wire Pliers

Who makes a good safety wire pliers? I purchased the Jegs brand one and it is a piece of crap that does not stay clamped onto the wire while twisting.
Looking for something better.

Thanks
Chad

Those pliers from Jegs were probably some of the items they have made in China and shipped back over here...
