Review on 🔧 Klein Tools J207-8CR Needle Nose Pliers: The Ultimate All-Purpose Linesman Pliers for Crimping, Looping, Cutting, Stripping, and Shearing by Joseph Flamm

Great product with a great design. I have used it many times when doing electrical repairs in my new house. I'm not giving it a full 5 star rating just because it's quite expensive and it's possible to get similar (or similar) quality for less so value for money isn't entirely clear. Also, I wish it had a spring-loaded mechanism, as I got a little frustrated at times when I had to awkwardly open it with one hand while my other hand was holding something else. The spring mechanism wasn't such a big deal in fact, and I don't think there's a spring mechanism tool that's quite as strong, so maybe it's just not possible to get the best of both worlds. There were times I was glad it wasn't spring loaded, like when I tried the wires and had to adjust the grip. In such situations, the spring would annoy me. In general, I'm glad that this tool is in my arsenal and I will use it for many more years. Maybe even my grandkids will use it.
