These are probably the best pair of pliers you will EVER buy as an electrician. Certainly one of the best tools I own. You will not regret buying a pair I can assure you
I totally agree 🤘
I have a set of these in my testing tool bag, they really are a versatile set of pliers. Nice demo video 👍👍
Thank you Three-phase
Excellent review! This video really makes me considering these pliers.
Greetings from a new subscriber in Sweden
Thank you. You won't regret it if you purchase a pair. 👌👍
4:40, thats my ONLY gripe so far after buying these, you need to be precise when cutting off outer insulation either the grey fte or flex sheathing. Too much and it needs to be done again or too little and you need to do it again. Maybe just practice thats all, but agree, great bit of kit in my toolbelt......
Practice makes perfect, you'd have the same issue if you used a knife or snips, it just takes a little time getting used to the feel of the cut. 💪👌
Excellent tool the best really expensive for that price it should have a spring in the middle
Knipex do a version of this that is spring loaded 👌
One of the best pliers ever !
Isn't it! I use mine pretty much every day.
Good advice as ever ....
Thank you Gary 👍
Great tutorial mate,congrats!
Thank you, I'm glad you found it useful. 👍
If you see Knipex in a tradesman bag,you can be pretty sure that made good choice.
You certainly get what you pay for with Knipex. 🤘
Great review 👍
Thank you. I hope it helped you? Are you going to purchase one?
@@ChampionsOfTheTrade it did, i bought one, was a considered purchase as I'm only a diyer plus i already bought the dedicated wirestripper but your demo of the punch out usability had me sold! 😎 I always end up using electric screwdrivers for this and it sucks, the added reamer is perfect 👌Also helpful to see the unsprung version, I went with sprung though 🤘
@@ironmantooltime brilliant 💪
@@ChampionsOfTheTrade totally legal and notified wiring of the shed here I come! 🤭
@@ironmantooltime if you're in the southwest, I know a good sparky that can do that for you 😉😖
What is the lifetime of the shears part, under usage scenarios as demonstrated in the movie? I wouldn't want the shears to dull fast. Can it be resharpened?
I'm not sure about resharpening, but I use them on a daily basis and they're still great today. 💪
Better off with a decent pair of side cutters
Maybe, it's what we get used to. Side cutters won't go through the size of cables that these will with ease.
What do you use?
I found knipex stripping holes dont work well on AWG, i feel like they are re marked metric holes. So if you’re in north america id stick with Klein over Knipex for strippers.
They're a German company, so being metric would make sense/ 0.75mm - 2.5mm. It wouldn't surprise me that they simply re marked the holes in imperial.
I've never had issues cutting / stripping flex. What issues are you finding when stripping wire with these?
@@ChampionsOfTheTrade just my thoughts… i might of just ended up with s reject pair or something, everyone I’ve read has had better results. Still think Klein makes a better stripper though, just my opinion.
What's the Klein model? I'd like to compare 👍
@@ChampionsOfTheTrade Ive been using Klein J207-8CR since like… 2017 and i really like them.
@@ChampionsOfTheTrade and like i said I could totally have biases based upon they systems i work on.
I have never seen the copy-cat versions.
They're sold on Amazon etc.
I've got the red and blue ones. There only downfall is that they're not really geared up towards starting to strip T&E. With snips you just put a cut in the middle, grab the earth, and pull it. Not so easy to do with these.
I totally agree, add a side cutter to these and they'd be perfect.
With T&E you pinch down the edge of the outer jacket with the pliers to break it and then you can peel it off to get to the earth wire.
@@three-phase562 Good tip. Thank you 👍
