KNIPEX989830US 10 -Piece 1000V Insulated Pliers, Cutters, and Screwdriver Industrial Tool Set

The tools are of the highest quality in the world. When I first bought my set I second guessed myself and thought it was a little expensive. But it was worth every penny. Amazing precision cutting, beautiful chrome finish, insulated screwdrivers to near tip provide extra safety and rated up 1000 volts resistance. If you thought your regular Kliens provided you with safety, multiply that by a million. The grips feel wonderful as if they mold inside your hand and provide incredible comfort and holding power. The channel locks are like no others that I have used. They are etched out in a way that makes it nearly impossible to strip what you are turning. Would have loved the other pushbutton lock in place channel locks also made by Knipex instead, but the quality in these are unchanged. The Cable cutters precision on it machining is impeccable. Also found a great use for cutting tie wraps flush with it. Extremely sharp will cut any cable with very little ease. The swivel design is just amazing engineering. A multitude of screwdrivers from the small flat head that I utilize to repair controls, to the square bits for easy panel opening. you'll be hard pressed to need more. The only tool that I thought had a downfall were the dykes . On these particular cutters the point is slightly flat. I'm presuming to prevent idiots from stabbing themselves, but the pointed ends, like the ones on the Kliens provide a greater use. Another downfall on the Knipex tools are that their are no indicators to really tell what's what inside your tool bag when they are upside down. Easily solved by a permanent marker of which I have marked capital letters on the ends to identify the tools. L for linesman, + for Philips, etc. etc. You can also (additionally/instead) hit the ends with a small amount of spray paint for quick color coordination. But for now the letters work great. This set, besides the lack of a stripper (Highly frowning on you Knipex for that mistake) is a full complete set for a wide range of uses for your typical Electrician .So in conclusion. A Knipex compared to the highly used great quality Klien tools, is like a brand new Lamborghini compared to a BMW. Both are nice but there is only 1 that's the best. You will love these tools, just keep them locked up because once you buy them, all of your coworkers will be envious. Btw there is a smaller 7 piece set that is almost 100 dollars less, great steal if it is available to you, and this one is out of your price range.

Great set. nice case, like others have said, I would rather a Cobra than an alligator style wrench.

Like them alot, good fit in the hands.

This set is pretty good. I'd appreciate it a little more if it included wire strippers and if the cutters were suitable for thicker wire, but it covers a lot of ground, and the individual tools are very high quality.It's hard to call this as an "industrial" set. Cutting more than 10/3 NM with any of these tools is a stretch. And in the home of today, with a 40-50A kitchen appliances and a 100A EV charger, it doesn't quite go all the way...but it'll get you through a rough-in of just about anything in the 10-14ga range (except for wire stripping), and the insulation provides some peace of mind and safety margin working in a live panel.

Knippex has made a quality insulated set at an affordable price. All tools are quality hardened steel and precision manufactured. Insulation seems quality and would trust my life with it. These tools will last a life time. My only complaint is the lineman pliers. For some reason they don't feel right to me and I feel clumsy with them in my hand. Knippex makes different styles which I do prefer. Klien is still the best in that department though. Overall a great buy!

I bought this tool set about five years ago to leave in the house for odd jobs. I got tired of running out to the shop all the time. Now when I'm working in the shop, I'll frequently go back to the house to get the set. I can't imagine how these tools could be any better designed or made. Every time you pick one of them up you'll get the warm/fuzzies.

It was a gift for my grandson, who is learning to be an electrician... I'll have to ask him!(I thought they were great; I'm a maintenance mechanic)

I have always used top ,quality tool's and in my opinion, This set was te best. The money you spend on good tools can save your life. I don't get chances to make mistakes in my industry but with the set that I purchased I can breath easyier . Thank you Amazon and Knipex !
