Those gatorback bags are nice i like how you can set your tools in the slots and pouches. I had own a pair, the only problem i had with them was the 2 outside pouches are too small i hard a hard time pulling wire nuts and screws out of them. They are nice but haven't gotten a pair cuz my hands are too big for the 2 oustside pouches

I bought quite a few new tools for school, because I had "tool money" with tuition mostly, and many of my tools were "home owner quality" if you know what I mean. So I got some knipex stuff. I got about half of them with comfort grips and I regret that. I don't have small hands but still, I find them more difficult to wield/maneuver than the same tool with regular dipped style handles - lesson learned. I like the extra long knipex linesman pliars, they're slightly newer version than yours by the looks of it. I love the cobra pliars and I have the "pliars wrench" in three sizes - one of my favorite tools, hands down. For any trade or application. Check those out man, they are the absolute shit. They can straighten pieces of metal (sheet metal, wrangled solid copper wire), they don't mar surfaces/fasteners, they have incredible clamping force/pressure due to the design, they can be used one handed (not adjusted, but to turn a fastener for eg.), or you can just bend pennies in half if you want ;) Knipex dykes are awesome too, wish I'd got the longer ones.

Hey Tyler, Great video, I enjoyed it and hearing some of your input and recommendations. I'm gonna be starting at my first electrical job and it's with a place that does a little bit of everything - maybe not that industrial though. Anyway I was wondering if I could pick your brain a little bit? I've been dead set on getting a tool-backpack for the longest time up until now, I kinda still am. I currently use a cheap plastic (polyer) tool box from Canadian Tire for my electrical gear (and another for automotive) and I hate having 30+Lbs (?) of tools weighing down one side of my body, I find it so annoying. I've been looking at the (new) Klein one, the "tradesman pro tool master", though it is 13.2lbs empty and $240 CAD. The Milwaukee Jobsite Ultimate looks good too. Greenlee and Fluke also both make one now (as well as just about everyone else is jumpin on the wagon). But now I'm not sure what to use, haha. I find belts *can* be annoying but I've never used a quality one, and honestly I've never used one for very long (like on a job) either. I like the idea of a tool-vest as well, have you ever seen or tried any? It's nice to have pockets at chest height for pens/pencils, volt-tick, etc. What kind of tool belt is that? The padding looks substantial. Where do you keep your impact/drill and battery or do you not have carry one? It's been months since I graduated and I've forgotten 75% of what I learned, lol. This should be fun :) Thanks for the video man, good job.

everyone has there own opinion on tool back packs, i personally like them a lot especially if your hopping in and out of a truck everyday it keeps most of your specialty tools and other tools organized. i do use a tool belt for the convenience try investing some cash in a nice one i use the milwaukee electrician tool belt its very nice, light weight and sturdy. as for keeping your drills i keep my hammer drill in my back pack and impact on my belt. Im currently a industrial/commercial electrician but of course it can be for residential aswell.

Complex Hi sorry for the late reply never saw a notification. Tool Backpacks are great for some people its just preference in my work habits tool belts are more efficient. If you want a backpack I recommend ponying up the bucks for a Veto its a better built longer lasting bag with the best layout in my opinion. I usually carry power tools in a separate case and just bring what I need clipped to my belt all our power tools are provided though so take that with a grain of salt. Glad to hear your going into the field man hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Brad Buchanan I tried to get everything I’d borrow 3 times plus I got started before I had too many bills so it was easier go ahead and get as much together as I could. Some southwires okay in a pinch but I’m not a fan not too big on milwaukee hand tools either though. I’m a Klein fan first and foremost but I like some german and industrial companies like snap-on and proto. Knipex is a bit over rated to me but the pliers wrench is definitely an improvement over any other adjustable I’ve used.

I’m like you though I love the grips on Klein but as far as the tips go it’s getting hard to justify paying paying 4 times as much.

I agree with u about the Klein' vrs knipex issue. 20 yr journeyman and I own both. Knipex are good but there are not forged by Jesus. They perform better with some tools and not with others. The margin of quality doesn't offset the cost in most cases however. If u notice in many comparison videos of knipex vrs the world, the narrator gets extremely vague when describing why they beat the compared tool in most cases especially Klein, saying thing like "They just feel better,I don't know:"😂. And ya i understand the "feel" of tools in the hand but that is an area were klein actually excells so if thats the excuse,well,,,,, Cobras are nice but don't leave those $50 pliers in the drop ceiling 🤣🤣🤣. Most complaints about Klein lineman are the break in issue. That's why they are way better? Diagonal cutters nope. Now admittedly some Klein tools are also comparable in price but they are also usually usa made so if the quality is the same then y not the usa made one? Yes i support usa made tools if there good. And channel lock is just being thrown under the bus by fad chasers. I admit the slip joint/Tongue and groove pliers design has become a bit obsolete compared to the new locking design but the strength, durability, and warranty of all channel lock products are unbeatable, and seems to get a bad wrap simply because they don't beat u up in price. Backwards thinking. In fact, aside from there tongue and groove pliers, all there other products are comparable to knipex and Klein. Again, I don't like cheap tools(cheap as in quality, not price),.. When u buy tools there is an element of practicality involved. Especially with hand tools. I want a good durable tool that does the job well and makes my job easier but one that won't make me cry if it disapears. Something that happens often with hand tools wether lost or stolen. So a middle ground needs to be met in MOST cases. Sometimes there are no options. I do refuse to fight with a low quality tool. To end my rant, knipex makes good tools. But so does Klein and channel lock, among many others. Don't get caught In a trend. Spend your money wisely (or not, after all it is your money, well until u give it to knipex🤣🤣🤣🤣)

Tyler English yes I saw that. Wiha has very reasonably priced insulated tools as well. A bit cheaper than knipex i believe, at the time i bought mine.I have a few of their insulated pliers and an entire set of insulated drivers from them. In fact, almost all my insulated tools are wiha. Excellent quality at an excellent price. I was shocked at how much cheaper they were than Klein insulated tools, being the quality was the same if not better in some cases, with a larger variety and there specialty seems to be in drivers (tips very strong) as knipex seems to be pliers I Highly recommend them

@bigo94136 жыл бұрын
Tyler English good point.although as I look at the few Milwaukee insulated drivers I have(I got a little bit of everything) they appear to have the double insulation and they were cheap as dirt. Although they are made in China so I guess I just answered my own question

I've seen that Klein makes some screwdrivers. I think they make them especially for the european market because instead of Phillips they have two Pozidriv screwdrivers (PZ 1 and PZ 2) in the set. The except the smallest slotted one all are slim line. I've switched the language over to english: www.reichelt.de/Schraubendreher-mit-Schutzisolation/KLT-32268/3/index.html?ACTION=3&GROUPID=562&ARTICLE=221018&START=0&OFFSET=16&SID=92Wm5D5qwQATQAADkXbrk90625839a7cfaa85af1a8bff86aa114e&LANGUAGE=EN For slim VDE screwdrivers the price is reasonable. The standard VDE screwdrivers cost much less. For a set made by Wiha or Wera you'll pay round about 25€.

My english is a bit rusty since I haven't used it for a long period of time. English is the first foreign language you're supposed to learn in school here from class 5 on till the end. And this is fixed to english. The second language can be chosen at class 7, and you can chose between french, spanish, latin or russian. I've chosen french, but it's all gone now. Ok, I'm out of school for almost 20 years now and I've never spoken french until then. My screwdrivers are Wera, mostly "used look", especially the large slotted is a bit beaten up. Other ones like the Pozidriv and Phillips are looking like they're brand new. Ok, Phillips is pretty uncommon here. We use Pozidriv in most cases. Pliers are mostly Knipex, which are quite cheap here. One of the insulated pliers had an "accident" with 400VAC, but it only ruined a part of the chrome finish and left a copper mark. The 63A NH-fuse was blown. I almost fell off the ladder, but the room was so small that nothing happened, I was caught by the wall. And that's the reason why we're using insulated tools everytime, even if the circuit is proved as dead. There could always be an idiot switching it back on because he want to make some coffee or such crap. I'm using a lock, but the locks here don't fit on any circuit breaker. This is depending on the manufacturer and the age of the breaker. So you need different types of locks. And sometimes you'll find electric installations without breakers, they still use fuses so you need a plug instead to prevent someone putting the fuse back in. A video would be too long. I've got a lot of tools. Tool addict would be a fitting statement. In addition I've got some screwdrivers made by PB Swiss (insulated), Wiss, Klein, Channellock and a screwdriver labeled as "Vaco" (Vaco is now part of Klein). Klein, Vaco and Channellock were hard to get...but I've seen they're now available here and remembered your video and your problem with the terminals.
