🔧 Klein Tools D248-8 8-Inch Diagonal Cutting Pliers with Angled Head - High-Leverage Design, Short Jaw Review

I'm a master electrician and I love Kline tools. Great products work as they should and last forever, but for me I do stupid things and break the chain under stress! Know better, don't shock, but pliers with burned notches don't work well! My fault, not product defect

This is small, you know what you are getting and what you are paying for. Excellent quality cutting machine. I've cut so many wires, zip ties, and other things that I usually lose them (or get stolen) right away before they break. I've never actually broken a pair. I have never had arm cramps with this brand.

Like most Klein tools, these work great and I expect them to last for decades. I have another similar pair that my father passed down to me (along with many other small tools) and they are slightly over 30 years old, which he used during his time as an electrician and builder and still work well . Seeing how well his Klein instruments work, especially after all this time, I now buy Klein just for myself. You get what you pay for, they cost more but they will probably last you for a lifetime or…

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…

I mean... it's a little one. What else is there to say. UPDATE 11/28/2016 Dog life. My wife has a Standard Poodle and she put a choke collar on him for training. Bad idea. I was sitting on the quarterdeck and suddenly he started flopping wildly. I jumped on him and pushed him onto the deck. The collar ring fell out of the crack and got stuck. The chain cut off his breath completely. I called my wife and she held it and tried to loosen the chain a bit. Fortunately, I'm one of those people who…

I don't think any other brand of side cutters has achieved what Klein has done. The strongest, sharpest and easiest to use diagonal cutters in the world. I've never used Kinipex side cutters, but I think Klein will still master Kinipex. Edit February 2020: The pliers I checked and used were stolen so I replaced them with Knipex side cutters. The Klein pliers I bought in this review were very good pliers, but comparing my Knipex pliers to other people's Klein pliers is just sad. I loved my small
