These are not Mitutoyo quality but we have had examples of both brands in the shop for years and they are very good. They quite often have a sales flyer and the prices are good. Another decent brand that won't break the bank is Fowler.
These are WAAAAAY better quality than the stuff from Princess Auto, Cdn Tire, Busy Bee etc.

I know of shops that use Insize and Asimeto.
Hell, Mitutoyo are over-rated. Two out of three my shop bought this year had burs on the internal jaws. Quality had been consistently going down since they started manufacturing in Mexico/Brazil.
