Knipex Plastic Tweezers

Perfect for what my needs!

So I've been watching LoneStarMopars.com
Review on this particular knife, God I've caught by it
So I bought one, wel this is now my main knife to cut boxes, nylons and other packing stuff. I ordered two more of these ( tool of the day). Very very good tool.

Sturdy and not a bad price.

Nice and handy!

These are just what I needed for everyday picking up of small objects. Your description was easy to understand so that I could determine that they would be a good fit for my work needs. The price was right and they were waiting in my mailbox for me in a very short time. KC Tool is now my source for small tools.

I've been using generic plastic tweezers for a long time (of the medical type that you can buy for less than half the price at the usual online stores) but, as a devote admirer of German precision tools, especially Knipex, I couldn't resist to add one of these in my last order.

With a firm and precise jaw closure, the tool fulfills its purpose well, although without excelling over any of the generic tools that I've used so far.

However, its manufacturing quality is quite inferior to that of most generic types and leaves a lot to be desired for a tool from this brand, so much that it's hard for me to believe that Knipex would stamp its name on something like this (or that it's been manufactured in Germany, as advertised).

The tweezers are full of pronounced and sharp burrs along the entire partition line of the mould and around the location of plastic injection ports, making of it a rough tool, both in look and feel, and very far from the German precision that Knipex is known for.

To complete my disappointment, I can't even say that I paid for the name, because the part number and manufacturer's logo are so poorly screen-printed that they were barely visible and I don't think it will be long before they completely fade out.

The bottom line is that I think it's not worth paying the extra price (even if it's only a couple of bucks), because any of the generic tools will perform the same but with a much better look and feel and at a lower price.

I have been looking for a pair of plastic tweezers for some time now. I like the handles, enough surface to hold on to and the ridges help to grip them. The price was another factor. One of those tools I won't use every day but useful when needed.

Very helpful around the shop. - - Great quality!
