KNIPEXHigh Leverage 12 Angled Diagonal Cut

These cutters are great, very comfortable in the hand, cuts very easily, and they are very very well made. Used them all day today instead od my kleins and id have to say they did just as good if not better. Similar in size to my kleins as well

Electrician, 20 years. Yes, I’m a Klein guy. Who isn’t…? Been thinking about grabbing a set of Knipex for a while now (Strippers, Dykes, Lineman’s). I grabbed all three.Haven’t used the Dykes or the Lineman’s yet. I used the Strippers, already wrote a review. I’m short, the strippers are great. Not really a 3-1 tool. You can’t get the grip strength when splicing wires together. With 14awg, it can handle that. 12 is where it shows it’s not strong enough. But that’s fine. Overall 4.5/5.Dykes…They feel great, look great and are comfortable. If they cut anything like the Strippers did, then these will be great as well. The Dykes & Lineman’s are very similar to the Klein models. Kind of look the same, feel the same, etc… so they will be easy to use right out of the box.Price… $$$They are pricy. The brand itself. But it actually is great quality. Most of the complaints are about Price. I get it. They are expensive. But for me, I love tools. I’ll spend a little extra for something that is worth it.Final…As I said, I have t used the Dykes or Lineman’s yet (just got delivered today). By the end of the week (3/18/23) I’ll edit this with how I feel after the 1st week.So far so good though. Knipex has been making some noise in the electrical field. Split feelings. Klein guys are Klein guys. And that’s fine. They make a great tool. I’m a Klein guy. But I’m leaning towards Knipex lately. The 3 main guys are Red & Blue now.Lineman’sDykesStrippers.Hope this helps anyone on the fence.

I use these a lot and could not be happier. I am lazy and do not do to many reviews but I love everything about these. The alignment is perfect and zero light through the jaws. They have a crisp snap for any type of wire I feed it. The handles are really unusual. They don't feel like regular plastic handles at all. The inside is red and quite slick while the blue parts are almost sticky with amazing grip. The handle is smooth right out of the box. The fit and finish are fantastic. The angled head is just right. It's a really nice tool with the only downside is they take more pressure than the Kline's to do the same cuts but I think the Knipex will be around after the Kines have gone. I won't bore you with it cut this and that. If you want to see all the different things it can snip through go on YouTube.

I do HVAC, electrical and plumbing and I’m slowly moving from all Klein hand tools to Knipex. They feel very heavy duty and there is quality here. 👍🏻

The product is excellent, I advise you to buy it!

Very sharp and comfortable, takes a lot for these to get dull , my first pair was almost 2 years old before I lost them and they still cut very well

The comfort is great. Better then any I ever owned with a comfort grip. Love the way it felts in the hand and while working. BUT, I was not as impressed by the performance of the cutting. My Klein tools red handle comfort grip. Is way more better for cutting like butter. I see a lot of comments about these knipex dykes lasting long then their Klein’s. Perhaps that is true since I barely got these knipex in. I tested both in comparison on cutting at home with 12 awg and 12 awg. Insulated , bare and while in the sheathing of romex. Mid wire cuts, and at the tips of the wire in all 3 aspects. The Klein is smoother and cuts like butter. I can cut slowly with the Klein’s and it’s smooth and no extra tension the whole way while cutting. And I mean real slow. With the knipex I needed to have some more force into the cut when going slow. Or when I’m cutting 3 wires at a time in the sheathing. Same for the tips. The knipex isn’t bad though. It is highly impressive. But in comparison to my red comfort grip handle Klein’s, the Klein’s win and I wish I didn’t spend the extra $$$ on these knipex. I do have to say, after cutting for a while on the test. The knipex got smoother. And I took them to work and etc. they seemed to be smoother on cuts. But the Klein’s still win and it’s noticeable. If you don’t need a new pair , while being a Klein tools owner of dykes. Don’t bother. Otherwise get these.

Being an electrician, I’ve always been a Klein guy, but after 3 years, my diagonal cutters were still stiff. These came smooth and loose right out of the package and cut like butter. I will NOT be going back to Klein.

Hasta hoy lo que he xortado con ella no me ha costado trabajo solo no me gusto que no viene muy bien el acavado del plastuco en los mangos en la parte de arriva de ahi en fuera se siente robusta y suave para abrir y cerrarla.

Recomendo está compra, o alicate tem uma empunhadura sensacional, corte limpo e uma beleza sem precedentes. Vale cada centavo investido.

C’est ma deuxième paire de pinces, je suis électricien et j’utilise mes pinces à tous les jour. j’ai du acheter une nouvelle paire de pincés parce que j’ai brulés l’autre en coupant un fils sous tension! Excellente qualité, très robuste et peuvent couper à peu près n’importe quoi!

Really sharp, use these everyday and they last a long time

Super
