Review on Kobalt Locking Pliers 2 Piece Set by Jeremy Floyd

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The Doubtful Best in Pliers

This replaced an old set of the same pliers that I couldn't figure out how to fix. They're a little tricky to block, but it's possible. The lock seems a bit flimsy so it may not hold. The bad news is they were covered in oil/grease! I tried drying it with paper towels, which turned black with grease. I had to put them in plastic bags before putting them in the kitchen drawer to keep the black grease from getting on everything in the drawer. These are probably great pliers, but I have to pay attention to ease of use. I have to be very careful what I apply them to so as not to stain them with black grease. Aside from washing them in hot soapy water I don't know what else to do about this problem.

Pros
  • Pliers
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks
