Review on πŸ”§ Klein Tools D248-8 8-Inch Diagonal Cutting Pliers with Angled Head - High-Leverage Design, Short Jaw by Ricardo Ware

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Hardest cutting edges, Easy to open and close

I have several cutters of this type. Linesman pliers include the Klien, Proto, and Snap-on. These clients seem to have the toughest edges of all. Unlike the snap-on and proto 8-inch linesmen, they show no signs of denting or warping. The Klein Linesman judges are pretty strong and my second choice. Snap-on is not easy to open and close with one hand. Vintage Protos work very well and are a good size, but the cutting edges have developed dents over the years. Although they were used much more than others. I have tested these kliens on nails and thick wire fasteners. And they stand up to abuse. The smaller jaw size allows you to use tips in hard-to-reach places where Linesman pliers won't fit. quality tool.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
