An adjustable locking pliers includes a stationary handle, a stationary jaw, an operating lever and a movable jaw. The jaw is coupled by an axis which is selectively displaceable to alter the jaws' gripping capacity. The operating lever is coupled to the movable jaw by a first pivot. The lever rear forms a movable handle. A spring biases rotation of the movable jaw about the axis away from the stationary jaw. An actuation rod having a series of teeth and a stop face is coupled to the operating lever by a second pivot part way along the operating lever and coupled to the stationary handle by means of a third pivot. A catch having a series of teeth and a stop face is pivotally coupled to the operating lever. The teeth of the actuation rod and the teeth of the catch are configured to engage each other to permit multiple clamping positions.
