Review on Knipex 0306180 Combination Pliers Rated by Grant Galloway

The quality and excellence of Knipex is unsurpassed. The finish is perfect, the chrome plating is deep and polished to perfection, the stamps are really high definition. The grip is very comfortable and the guards give me a secure grip. When I first opened them they opened effortlessly but they have no wobble in the joint, here they machine to perfect or near perfect tolerances. The cutters are perfectly matched to each other. and easy to cut, they are smaller than the standard 9.5" pliers but that's why I bought them, they are less tiring when working overhead and easier to work in tight spots. The only thing I'd really like to see is more features, maybe a hatched flat grip area and a crimping tool on the back, at least on the larger 200mm/225mm sizes.
