$2000 Pliers Drawer Tour (Knipex & SnapOn)

[@rikkrakk4012]

Have you tried Vampires? Been using their 8" linesmans for a while now and I love them. Just got the needle nose in the mail today so I'll get a chance to test them out next week at work. Theyre amazing for snapping nails/screws or removing stripped/stuck screws

I think my pliers would fill that box, which, oddly enough.has all the same size drawers.

[@thebackwoodsmechanic5029]

Very nice layout Snap On, Channellock, Klein, Knipex mixture is the top of the line pliers with Mayhew, Lisle, Mac/Proto, Wright, NWS, Wiha , Nepros. Koken Lang, Hazet, Milwaukee USA, Vessel, Bondhus all being good for various other types of tools

Yessir thank you for the comment!

[@bulshavix6]

I think the only other brands I have that you didn’t mention that people maybe haven’t heard about are Tsunoda, Merry, Engineer, Fujiya and Victor. All of them have ones I really like. For anything with a blade like scissors and knives KAI makes some stuff I have never found anything that compares with them. I probably have $4000 in KAI stuff. Always looking for the best tools

Snap-on/Knipex are my go-to also. I also have some Lobster (Japan) which are nice. I also have the copy-cat Icon pliers and they are the best value when on coupon.

[@doyleshepard8217]

That Rolex is a nice tool as well 😊

[@chrishallnyc]

Thanks friend. Ref. 116600

[@gnarwhal2642]

Where in the rankings would you place vidmar?

[@chrishallnyc]

I have not used them.

[@richharr]

Cabinets? Stanley owns both vidmar and lista, its the same.

[@alishatruman]

Make a video about why Rousseau are better than Sonic, etc.

[@chrishallnyc]

I will!

[@victorhoyt4352]

​@@chrishallnycPlease do!!

And the irony on how Tekton (which I own) uses them to make their boxes.

[@brandonm6052]

I can confirm with my most recent job that nothing beats high quality pliers. What, you mean you didnt want to pay $86 for the snap on flush cuts! Neither did I. So I will say the knipex diagonal looking pliers in a 2 pack that are said to be flush cuts ... my set was definitely not ground to a flush cut. Otherwise im pleased with my other knipex. I agree the LN46acf is my favorite pliers and fully worth the 60 some dollars. My pair is not aligned perfectly.

[@chrishallnyc]

Yessir. Thank you for the great comment!

[@OMGbro007]

cool

[@bulshavix6]

I have a problem. I have like 3 drawers like that. Separate cutter drawer and mini ones. Then copies of all the ones I like in all my bags. Those small snap on ones probably hurt me the most. I have like 5 pairs and they are expensive but make it so you can carry less tools for sure

[@chrishallnyc]

That’s awesome. I have a separate drawer for a few micro pliers alongside my watch tools. Could you ever get it down to one drawer? Also what size drawer

[@deandresimpson6948]

Can you classify European brands tools, better than Snap On , please?

[@anonym6391]

It always depends on the genre you are in and on the tool itself. Common big brands in Europe (especially Germany) for sockets, ratchets, and wrenches are Hazet, Stahlwille, Gedore (check to avoid buying their budget line), and Heyco. If you're looking for screwdrivers, I would recommend Felo, Wera, and Wiha. Good pliers are made by NWS, Knipex, and some models by Wiha.

[@chrishallnyc]

Yes I will

[@chrishallnyc]

Obsessed Garage does a good job

[@deandresimpson6948]

@anonym6391 thank you

[@cblack1863]

100% agree with you on Knipex & SO for plier brands. I can't get on board with the Wranglstar Cringe Lord 'ProHo' thing though. The guy thinks he's litterally gods gift to mans knowledge of tools, and is clueless half the time. Sorry, no such thing as a professional home owner lol. We're just some guys that maintain are homes/vehicles like everyone used to do. You didn't say they give you 'The Fizz' so there's still hope, rant over lol...Anyway, like you said, the Twin Grips are awesome. Available in 6 & 10" now. Japan has some beauties as well, Fujiya & Tsunoda, Lobster, 3 Peaks etc... Really nice plier collection man👍🏻
