Electrician (and tool specialist) here:

From what I understand so far, ALL Knipex pliers are the BEST in their respective category. These Linesman pliers come standard with induction hardened cutting edges that you pay extra for at other high profile brands. The slanted head of the sharp-edged pliers is ideal for extending EMT hoses; the round heads of the Kleins and <shudder> ideals are not. Knipex handles are thicker, safer and more comfortable. But: If you REALLY want the "best of the best" check out their Cobra Head pliers: For me it was love at first sight --- and I haven't changed my opinion about them in 25 years!

Pros
  • 1000V 2-piece insulated handles for a comfortable grip
Cons
  • I'm silent
