Review on Metal Earth Set: Clipper, Flat Nose Pliers, Needle Nose Pliers - 3 Essential Tools by Joel Gumbiner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They are cheap so the quality matches the price.

Compared to others who have bought them, I'm happy with my needle nose pliers. My job is to twist and fully close the tabs, but they don't fit in the small spaces required to complete some of these metal models. The joints of this tool set are so sharp that I cut myself several times. I have used other pliers with needles and never had this problem. The neck of the needle nose pliers also had a very sharp edge which thank goodness I was able to undermine. He clippers work well. They are the best tool in this set. But the pliers are not straight, when I bend the side of the metal model, one side always bends due to the uneven end of the tool. But hey, about $10 what do you expect?
