Review on Felo 715763799 Chain Radio Pliers by Tommy Rao

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Large pliers with acid-resistant handles

Felo makes damn good tools. I've been using their screwdrivers for almost a decade now. I recently wanted to try some of their pliers so I bought a couple of these. I believe these are converted German NWS tongs. Not super expensive and not super cheap. NWS models can be a bit cheaper if you shop around. The first pair of long noses I had took a little practice (or is it EXILE? Muahahaha!) to remove a nail or something in the joint, but they work great now. There are handles. distinctive. You don't just love them or hate them. I would have thought almost everyone on the fence would be confused - I like them but they're hard to look at. Maybe you like it. I hope they never move to anything more mediocre. Different models may have futuristic/robot handles and others. more contemporary art. Every once in a while, you'll likely find yourself using them to use a bad contraption, happily but uncontrollably humming "Ziggy played the guitar."

Pros
  • Wings with locking mechanism for a secure hold
Cons
  • Very expensive
