The general view today about pipe wrenches seems to be you either get Bahco (trad wrenches, particularly adjustable wrenches that don't suck) or Knipex (adjustable plier wrenches; smooth jaws, lots of range). Knipex sizes start at "is that real?" and run up to the limits of domestic plumbing requirements (16" handles); Bahco gets up into heavy machinery, "one wrench, one apprentice" sizes but starts reasonable.

Woohoo, accomplishment!
