Hi Y'all

I have German made knipex geared plyers. These are like channellocks, but with smooth jaws, and a geared adjustable jaw mechanism.i use em a lot where i work, but also have a pair at home i use for tweaking metal when i am doing bodywork. These are great, I was wondering who else has these and loves em.

Yep, Got a set of 6" channellock type. Can crank up a length of 12" pipe.
Plus 10" cutters. goes through 1/8" stainless wire, WAY easier than Kliens.
I hate to lug around a pair of 440`s in my back pocket.
 
I have several Knipex tools, they are all good quality. The Cornwell tool guy sells them.

Awesome pliers. They will grab stuff where both pipe wrench and vice grips slip
 
Very nice tools, I love them. There is a barely used 10" side cutter sitting under the ferry terminal at Shaw Island. I dropped them when I was climbing the ladder to terminate some motors up on the headframe that raise and lower the slip. Even when the tide is all the way out, it's still a good 12' deep:banghead:
 
I have sold them for years off my Mac Tool Truck. They are top notch!

They are awesome!!!! I have several pair. And im a dealer tech and have never broken or dulled them.
 
I also love them and they have better gripping capability than Vise-Grips. The jaws are supposed to be very hard, however, I have dulled a few sets with heavy use. Does anyone know if the Knipex adjustable pliers have a lifetime warranty?
 
that seems like a similar idea to Craftsman Robo-grips
