I was looking for something small to carry with me in the different situations I face and this model fits the bill perfectly. At first I was concerned they might be too small, but the functionality is as good, if not better, than the full-size pliers I carry around, and they're a fraction of the weight.
I wear them every day and play with them all the time. This is my fidget toy. They also turned out to be serious pincers. They are tough and evil. I sanded down the sharp edges of my jaws because I play with them all day. They tore my fingers. If I didn't play with them I would leave sharp edges. They are suitable for this type of instrument. In general I am very happy with them.
These are great little versatile needle nose pliers. I definitely go for a pair when I reach for the toolbox. Robust, compact and very well made. When I got them I filed down some of the sharp edges and then put them in a box where I'm sure they will serve me long after I'm gone. These are great tools at a reasonable price. I highly recommend them.

Basically, it doesn't become a constant "I wish I could buy something better" every time the tool is used.
Now my tool for all household electrical work. These pliers are much more comfortable to work with than large needle-nose pliers. The head is the perfect size to fit into tight spaces and help with junction box organization. My favorite feature is the small round indentation on the surface of the handle. This is the perfect size to grab the wire and not damage the surface of the insulator too much. This is especially helpful for inserting conductors into WAGO Lever Nuts. The only downside I can

Ever since I discovered Knipex through some of their unique products (like the Cobra pipe wrench and the awesome pliers wrench) I go to Knipex for all the tools I need with pliers; be it electrical and assembly precision tools or all-purpose pliers. So far I have not been disappointed with the exception of a pair of pliers which I bought from Amazon with a rating of 'like new' (to the layman the pliers looked brand new but as far as I can tell they are either one Used for light duty or…
