I used these the other day for holding a bolt while I shortened the bolt with an angle grinder. It was perfect for this with my hand well away from the grinder and the bolt held securely.
Great video, i love this pliers. I already have the engineer screw extraction pliers, but since I have a lot of knipex tools, I bought the twingrip with the nonslip handles about a year ago. Last week I bought the multi component handle version which is more ergonomic. This pliers perform very well on larger screw heads, because the slip joint design is helping a lot. The jaws remain more parallel, and the handles are more closer. Also the teeths are more durable, and I like the cobra style jaws, they grip round, hex or square objects very well. They are my universal pliers, I use them every day.
Got the Twin Grips for $18.90 a few weeks ago, including delivery. Couldn't believe the price, and jumped on them immediately. I agree with everything you said about them. Loving using them.
Mr Mitsuhiro Takasaki invented the screw extraction pliers in 2002 but wasn't available until 2006 thats when i bought a pair of them the name of the pliers (engineer pliers with screw extractors) it was a big hit in JP it took 10 year's to get hear in the UK .
I love my twin grips so much that when they came out with a comfort handle I had to have it as well. The comfort handle makes all the difference in the world on many of their pliers. I wish they would put them on all of their plies but that's just not the case unfortunately. The raptors are extremely good at getting rusty frozen nuts and bolts off as well I also like my twin grips far better than the vampires I got before I knew about the twin grips. In the last year and a half I've spent countless amount of money on all kinds of there pliers. I have everything from extra small cobras and pliers wrench all the way up to the extra large and about every size in between.. I've been disabled for decades and these tools make my work almost easy.
If you work on old engines or anything that you run into hard to remove fasteners then get one of these and a impact screwdriver. Will save you a lot of headaches, time and money.
@TonyTheTechnician no need to apologize. I like your content. I've been on the hunt for the absolute best of each type of pliers. Knipex twin grip tops my extraction pliers. Snap on LN47ACF for long nose. I'm getting close to satisfied with flush cutters, I'd like a heavy duty with retention. Diagonals is next im considering the Victor's or 11" snap on vector edge. I want as minimal effort as possible. Some compound joints require scoring then cutting.i want a single squeeze high leverage. Any input is greatly appreciated.
I’ve taken a plastic bucket an submerged both handles about a 1/4” from the metal an put 1,000 volts into mine an had no leakage of voltage into the water through the handles with an insulation tester. They aren’t what is considered insulated. But they are. I wouldn’t use them for that job though. Just really checked mine more for if it ever were to come in contact with a 110v but they contained the 1000v. But again. The cover on the handle isn’t the same kind an toughness of insulation.
I have a pair of the icon knockoff snap-on plies. One thing I noticed is when it's in the middle position the Jaws do not exactly line up at top. But on the right and the left they do. Is that the same kind of problem they have with Snap-On?

Very nice!!!! That's an amazing deal!! Great find. The lowest I've seen was 26 or 27 which is still a great price. But under 20 is amazing!! 👍

Very nice glad to hear it. Really glad you enjoy them as well. The twin grips are fantastic
@@TonyTheTechnician it's amazing how many great plies that they designs. Have a great day
I just bought 2 pair of these yesterday. Along with $700 of other KNIPEX tools. 😳
Hahaha dang. Well I'm sure you will really enjoy them. Sounds like you bought alot.
Knipex are the absolute best,, buy once, cry once,,
One and done,, 👍
Great video - I love them too! Knipex makes great tools, and these extractors are no exception.
Thank you and I absolutely agree
He is not grifting... I have those pliers. They are amazing and i normally hate slip joints.
Thanks and ya these are my go to now when I need a slip joint style. Glad you enjoy them as well
I run into button head hex screws that are 3/8" and smallet which are ofthen buggered up. Thrse are so useful for them
Nice!!! That's awesome. Glad they work well for you!!!
I just bought some of these. I'll probably never use regular slip joint pliers again.
Thanks for the video. Does any company make a vise grip type pilers with a screw extractor tip? Locking twin grips?
Vampliers has a vice grip style screw extraction pliers.
Yes indeed vampire tools does. I haven't used that set before though.
Got them on sale! Absolutely loving them !
Nice!! Glad to hear it

Hello again Tony
Thank you for another Great Video 👍 Nicely done my friend 😀
Thank you I really appreciate that. Hope you are having a good week
@TonyTheTechnician Hello again Tony
We're doing pretty good. 😍 Enjoy the week. Take care for now
do they make twin grips in a vice grip type of plier?
No I do not believe so
I love them👍
Same here 👍
The other style of grips (cushion grips) is not insulated.
Thanks for sharing. Did I say that in the video? If so my apologies
Oh ya I just found where I said insulated my apologies I meant comfort grip.

Same thing with the snap on bc that middle position is in a higher spot so that's just the way they are
