Review on Knipex Tools 10 98 I220 by Larry Daniels

I bought these to crimp fuel line clamps on a Mercury Optimax outboard when replacing all fuel lines. These pliers are a little more expensive than the standard pliers you can find for $12-15, but they are worth it. They appear to be of very good quality and the side crimp is invaluable for tight or confined spaces. I don't think I could have done the job without further disassembly of the motor housing if I had used standard pliers with no side lip. These things are great and your only regret will be buying the cheaper standard models that don't have side crimping as it will save you time and hassle! Happy with the purchase!
