NWS 6.5" High Leverage Combination Pliers CombiMax - TitanFinish - SoftGripp, Tethered Attachment

First pair of NWS I have purchased. Normally use Knipex. Very happy with these pliers. Build quality is second to none. Very comfortable grips. Lightweight. The machining and the finish are extremely nice. Have since purchased a different set that sold in a pair.

An excellent tool made especially for tight spaces. Comfortable to use and hang up in my workshop.

Best pliers for small jobs fit great in a small hip pouch. Pair them with the matching nws side cutters and chain nose pliers and it looks really professional to customers.

I think I've been bugging KC Tool to sell this brand since back when they only sold Knipex and Wiha. I've had these pliers for maybe 5 years. They are my go to combination. I mean, I generally go to grab the bigger ones; but I mistakingly always grab this size. I'm reviewing the ones I own, but the 6.5" available in the matte chrome finish are just as good. If you're a tradesperson that requires traditional designs, these aren't for you. For everyone else, you will love them. They are not as nicely finished as Knipex nor Gedore, but the design and the 3k handle....oweee....my favourite.

I have indeed held many nails with the nail holder. I have indeed never really touched my fantastico side cutters because the cutters on the combination pliers last forever. I have indeed made use of the bolt/nut holding section. The head is shaped in such a way that they get into tighter areas, and often do half the work of my needle nose pliers.

YMMV, of course. I just want to say, I've been a fan for a while.
