I own all the COC grippers and have owned the Ivanko gripper. I gave a friend my Ivanko gripper once I got the COC set. Big mistake as even with the in between COC grippers it's hard to get just the right weight. Both the COC and Ivanko grippers are excellent. Let me write about the Vatiz gripper now. First off it comes in very nicely packaged from the shipper and Vatiz. Shipping was very fast. This gripper is a beast. It is heavy and very well made. Very smooth movement. Has the same grip angle as a COC gripper. The handles are slightly thicker, but not by much. Very easy to adjust. I'd take this gripper over the Ivanko any day of the week, though I'd still buy the COC as they are the standard for testing your grip strength. Yes, it is an expensive gripper and worth the money period. I'll be using this along with my COC grippers. This gripper is just now making its way to the USA. I tried researching it before buying and could only find one review in English other than Amazon. Seems to be very popular in Russia. Anyhow, I'd buy this gripper again with no second thoughts! I am very pleased! I added a picture with a COC 2.5 on top of the gripper. The handles on the Vatiz close tightly together.
