Tools - Long Nose Pliers With Cutter, Multi-Component (2612200), Multi-Colour, 8 inches

This is my 6th Knipex tool. I love that they fit your hand so well and have a very slim point so I can get into tight spaces and grip (specifically when shaping a 14 or 12awg wire around a screw terminal). Great grips and quality construction.

**The Pinnacle of Pliers: Where German Engineering Meets the Perfect Tool** **★★★★★ An Unmatched Fusion of Precision, Power, and Ergonomics** In a toolbox filled with good-enough tools, the KNIPEX Long Nose Pliers (2612200) stand apart as a masterpiece. As an electronics technician and avid DIYer, I've used my fair share of long-nose pliers, from cheap hardware store finds to other professional brands. None come close to the thoughtful design and flawless execution of this tool. This isn't just a pair of pliers; it's an extension of your hand that makes delicate work not just easier, but a genuine pleasure. **Unrivaled Precision and Control** The business end of these pliers is where the magic happens. * **Finely Tapered, Rock-Solid Jaws:** The jaws are long and slender, tapering to a fine point that provides unparalleled access to the tightest spaces. Despite their slim profile, they are manufactured from KNIPEX's high-grade chrome vanadium electric steel, making them incredibly strong and resistant to spreading. I can confidently twist a wire in a crowded terminal block without fear of the tips bending or breaking. * **Flawless Cutter Performance:** The integrated diagonal cutter is a beast. It cleanly shears through copper wire, component leads, and even small screws with astonishing ease. The cut is clean and burr-free, which is critical for reliable electrical connections. The cutter is precision-honed and feels like it will stay sharp for a lifetime. **Ergonomic Brilliance for All-Day Comfort** This is where KNIPEX demonstrates its understanding of the professional user. * **The Multi-Component Grips are a Game-Changer:** The two-color, multi-component grips are the most comfortable I've ever held. The firm, slip-resistant black zones provide a secure grip, while the softer, textured red zones cushion your hand and absorb strain. The difference during a long soldering or assembly session is night and day—dramatically reducing hand fatigue. * **Perfectly Balanced:** The pliers have a superb balance, feeling neither tip-heavy nor handle-heavy. This contributes to the overall feeling of control and precision, making fine motor tasks feel effortless. **Durability That Inspires Absolute Confidence** From the moment you pick them up, you can feel the quality. The joint movement is silky smooth yet completely free of play. The high-polish finish not only looks professional but also provides excellent corrosion resistance. This is a tool built not for a project, but for a career. **Real-World Applications: Where It Excels** * **Electronics Work:** The perfect tool for placing components on a PCB, retrieving dropped screws, and cutting leads. * **Jewelry Making and Model Building:** The fine, non-marring tips are ideal for handling tiny parts and making precise adjustments. * **General DIY & Electrical Work:** Perfect for wiring light fixtures, installing outlets, and any task requiring dexterity and a clean cut in confined spaces. **The Final Verdict** The KNIPEX Long Nose Pliers are worth every single penny. While the initial cost is higher than a generic pair, the longevity, performance, and user comfort provide an incredible return on investment. **Who is this for?** * Professional electricians, engineers, and technicians. * Serious electronics hobbyists and makers. * Jewelers, model builders, and anyone requiring fine precision. * DIYers who appreciate owning the absolute best tools. **Who might want to look elsewhere?** * Someone who needs a pair of pliers for occasional, rough use that might damage these precision tips. **Final Thought:** This is a tool you buy for a lifetime. The joy of using a perfectly engineered instrument cannot be overstated. **Stop struggling with mediocre pliers and experience the KNIPEX difference. This is, without a doubt, the definitive long-nose plier and an essential cornerstone of any quality toolkit. Highest possible recommendation.**

Used these a lot and they still look new! Inner blade is sharp from factory and grips are super comfortable for pliers. Much more rust resistant than previous brands I’ve purchased and 100% German made!

I've been doing more electrical work around my apartment and in my garage, and my rusty craigslist pliers needed replacement. A friend employed as a lineman told me to buy KNIPEX - and I'm glad I made the investment. These are extremely comfortable to hold and "just right" in every regard. Grippy tips that make it easy to grab dropped screws or wires. A sharp cutting blade that makes it easy to punch through even thick wire. The action in the hinge is perfect: not too tight, not too lose, not at all fatiguing on the hand. One of the few recent purchases I've made where "Made in Germany" still means something: world-class engineering and undisputed quality. I understand the hype around these, and as more tools become eligible for replacement, I won't hesitate to purchase the Knipex equivalent.

Everything knipex is amazing so when I saw these on sale I had to grab them. Been using them evryday for 2 months now and I have nothing but good things to say about them.

Light weight, easy to use, long nose pliers, not needle nose pliers. Good for reach and grabbing, I wouldn’t be using these as heavy duty cutters or bending and twisting heavy metal as this is not what these pliers are intended for, it’s for reaching and grabbing. There’s other heavy duty long nose pliers out there for those purposes. This is a great set of pliers if you use these tool as intended.

Great quality knipex pliers never disappoint

Decent pair of long nose with good rigidity and easy, comfortable grip handle

Zoals bijna alle tangen van Knipex is deze ook perfect. De bek sluit goed; zelfs het kleinste haartje klemt goed. Via Amazon ook nog eens voor een betere prijs.

Knipex! Vad skulle det vara annars?
