  • Nice heavy duty pair of dikes.
Size: 8-Inch Pattern Name: Pliers
Well constructed heavy duty pair of diagonal cutters. I know they’re not cheap but good tools never are. Don’t buy cheap tools made in China, you’ll be disappointed.

  • Best yet
Size: 8-Inch Pattern Name: Pliers
I lost my Cresent Tool diagonal cutters, and new that the only way to find them was to buy another pair. This approach worked perfectly in 2 ways. My wife found my Cresent's 3 days after I received the Kleins and I found that the Kleins are a much better plier than the Cresent's which I liked quite well. They are worth the price as they are comfortable in my 86 year old hands as well as generating more cutting power. I'm a happy 2 plier man. ... show more

  • Seems good like most Klein tools, they hold up in the industrial electrician field
Size: Standard Pattern Name: Pliers
The media could not be loaded. I like the thinner grips but that’s just a preference thing, like most Klein Tools, they are made well and last a long time especially if you take care of them, and or don’t burn a home in the cutting something hot and make contact with a conductive source lol!

  • Simple, Reliable and durable as hell
Size: 8-Inch Pattern Name: Pliers
In my 19 years as an electrician I never heard of one breaking. They can seize up if you get to much crawl space on them but that's nothing a ¼ can of WD40 cant fix. I did have to replace my first pair 18 years ago. On account of cutting one to may hot cables...saved me from having to buying a pair of stripper for a while though... I would probably still have my first pair if I didnt loose them...and my second pair...and my 20th... They can give green horns some good size blister after stuffing boxes for week. But I find other pairs with fancy grips are to heavy and are harder to get in and out of my back pocket. ... show more
