round nose pliers

Looking to get round nose pilers for tail wraps. Is the nesting pliers better than just having two round jaws.

Top down Craftsman 9.99
Terminal Tackle (I think) 15.00
Wiha 25.99
Knippex 25.99

I use the knippex the majority of the time and the wiha on occaission. There is no comparison between the top 2 pair and the bottom 2. The knippex are the strongest where as the wiha are the most comfortable to work with.
