Yes but. in Power & Hand Tools

These flyers have a small slider that needs to be activated to keep the pliers closed when you put them away. So before using them, you need to push them, and then the spring will fully open the handles. It may take me a while to get used to these features. Otherwise the quality is good, in general the purchase is satisfied.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Expandable

de gran utilidad y calidad

que la abertura que en el momento tiene es para maniobrar cable y alambres delgados.Retiro lo del defecto, fue una calificación apresurada; resulta que si debía forzar la apertura i que casi todas las herramientas por lo common son algo pegadas y sen que echarles un poco de grease para que funcionen como debe; la apertura de los mangos los lleva a colocar casi horizontales, resulta que el mecanismomplementado en el alicate hase que se pueda utilizar como una llave inglesa ya que se aprieta un…

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Good, but not great

I bought these, they were cheap and the description said "Compound arm design provides a 50% increase in cutting power." Yeah, not so much. The fit and finish is terrible. When the jaws are closed there is a gap. They don't seem to be long-lived at all, and they aren't long-lived. I was excited to try the "Complex Action" as I had never tried this type of pliers before. When I got them I went to my garage to test them with some scrap wire. It's terrible! They don't cut well and don't make a…

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Unfashionable

Possibly the best and most comfortable diagonals I've had in years

Bought these about 5 years ago. The recoil spring broke after 3 years but they are fully covered by the Crescent warranty. So now I have a second pair with a 1.5 year guarantee and they are still going strong and trained by me. I recently bought a pair of these for a family member and they love them. Great Moments; very pleasant vinyl coating, pleasant to the touch, it seems that they remain sharp even after heavy cutting of the wire. The two best features of these diagonals are a…

Maybe good, maybe not, time will tell.

A little surprised. It could be an apex tool, whoever it is, but it's labeled Crescent as in Crescent Wrench. I have always trusted Crescent tools. They are known for their excellent quality tools that last forever. I'll have to use this tool for a while to see if it holds up. The dies appear to be very well made, the rest of the tool not so much. It actually has the feel of a cheap instrument and I'm not at all sure it will really hold up. It opens automatically, which I like, unlike others…

Pros
  • Tools and household goods
Cons
  • Small parts

Good side cutter for side pliers

**Edit after a few months** I had to order a replacement set of these pliers. I cut a live wire and he scraped the shavings off one of the cutting blades. All my fault. The well-insulated handle did the trick and I didn't feel a thing. The lifetime warranty does not cover misuse (or stupidity). I liked the wire cutters so much that I ordered another pair.** Original review **These wire cutters are good. They are comfortable to hold and cut very well. I am testing the wire cutters to see if they

Pros
  • Hand tools

  • Not as thick as other picks

Don't buy them from pliers

I liked them at first. Then I started to see their shortcomings. Including too much game in mind. The tip has broken off on one side. Contacted company, no response yet. It's been several days. At this point I will never buy Crescent brand pliers again. Unless something is done to make that experience better. To update; I ended up calling Crescent and her to send them the article at my expense. I needed to find Crescent brand items, one from Revain, one from a large orange. So I just got the…

Pros
  • Side cutters
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
