Thanks for your thoughts. Most of the newer pliers out there that have a bolt or nut turning section have it in a "v-shaped" or roughly parallelogram shape rather than the old curved/oval shape. These have the older curved/oval shape design there, and I wonder why. Are the curved/oval jaws better for anything than the v-shape? (Anybody?)
Infamous means well known for a bad quality reason or action. I think you probably mean just famous or well known. Nice pliars, I am looking forward to getting some. Thanks for posting your video. The 7" pair here in Australia are $138 and the 9" are $152. That's bananas but I think I will buy a pair anyway. I'm curious to see if there's anything to the hype. I doubt I'll ever buy another Snapon tool. Knipex are much more reasonably priced here but it will be interesting to give these a go.
I think the infamous part is the high tool truck prices not any bad quality. That’s the only rift I see from people. Some mechanics will defend them to the end while others would never spend that kind of money. To each his own, spend your money how you please.
I do apartment maintenance these are amazing you’ll grab these over most other pliers but the only thing is the cutter is not the greatest I would say that’s for solid wire anything else you won’t get a clean one time cut but for pulling plugs and wire terminals and water connections they are amazing my go to pair I have the 47’s
I got these of the web site, they were both in stock and ordered at the same time but came in separate plastic bags and was charged two lots of shipping 😤

I too was disappointed in how they were shipped when I got mine…
Thanks for your video!
Thanks for watching.
Used from the factory 🤗

Love the talon grips. Snap on did well with these.

These thing are great for cutting and pulling baling wire. I’ve definitely been putting them to use.

Yeah, their shipping protocol is asinine. Lots of room for improvement for sure.
bro..... enough with the shipping... with that being said, i love my pair of 46's. I also bought a set of the no dip handled 44's.
Yes, they certainly do charge enough for the shipping. lmao
I just go ahead and get $250 and get the free shipping. It is what it is I guess
I suppose on one hand, it's not difficult to spend $250 on snap-on tools. I just didn't need/want anything else at the time.
I've been looking hard at these
They’re tempting tools for sure! Clearly they finally won ME over. Hahah
I got the 7 inch and they are amazing. Thay actually just released a 4.5" version too to make an edc pair, I'm about to get those too!
