Review on 9.5-inch High Leverage Lineman's Pliers: Superior Strength for Electricians and Cutting Tasks by Hector Watkins

Wow, these are reliable pliers. They are so strong and heavy that I feel like I'm holding a hammer. I have no doubt that I can use them for all kinds of work. In fact, I think I'll keep them in my car emergency kit because I know they'll come in handy when I REALLY need them. allows more hands on the handle. The wire cutters look well made and can cut through fairly thick electrical wires. The inside of the front tip has hatched grooves to ensure a good grip on whatever you need to pull, and the very end of the pliers is flat, allowing for fairly controlled bending of objects when you need to do so. By making the cutting part, they lengthened the metal a bit when cutting/compressing it into shape, so these pliers aren't the best option when trying to pull something as thin as a few sheets of paper. Otherwise, I find these pliers really first class and can only recommend them.
