When I saw these pliers on the KC website, I decided that I finally had to have a pair. There have been multiple times in my DIY travels that a design like this would have been very helpful. These are very high quality and I particularly like the feature that enables you to lock them in the closed position!

Amazing pliers

These things have outstanding build quality, fit and finish. Can't recommend them enough. They are great for hard to reach places or where you need a little extra leverage

I got these on a whim because they looked so freaking cool. Turns out they put some though into these things. I ended up getting the VDE version and gifted these to my nephew along with the needle nose version as well. So get the VDE if you do electrical work the non for everything else.

New Favorite Pliers

Love these pliers, very high quality, comfortable grips, I grab them for every task, end up using them all the time. Slowly starting my NWS collection!

Great deal

These are a comfortable, useful, and well made. Jaws are parallel and secure. These have become my go to set of combination pliers. The jaws do not open all that far but fits my needs. Replaced an old Snap on pliers that got legs and feel like I got a great deal.

E
Excellent addition
Helpful to have on a project

In combination with the Cobra pliers, these can be really helpful when working on a kitchen renovation. They are easy to find and store, and are better quality than others I've tried.
