Review on Pliers - Tronex Chain Nose - Smooth Jaw (Long Handle) by Justin Anderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you like nice tools you will love these

I needed some replacement piers for home electronics and thought I could get away with some inexpensive ones. What I got was the chance to re-learn that once you have used really good tools your spoiled for life. I was familiar with the top flight european brands but not the American made Tronex but I'm very glad to have discovered them. I have large hands and this version with the ergonomic = longer handles is a real plus for me. Some small pliers are really hard to hold but not these ones. The spring tension is good. I like the fact that the joint is held together with a screw that can be tightened if required rather than a rivet. The key is the tips which are indeed super fine and will allow you to get a secure grip on even the finest wire.
