Thank you very much. I've always goofed around with things and thought it might be fun to share what I get into. At a minimum, maybe I can help someone decide what product fits their needs best or encourage them to try and take apart something that is broken and try to repair it.

I had also noticed they changed the grips to be closer to Snap On. They’ve done it with their other pliers as well. I prefer the newer grips as they are literally grippier and slightly more comfortable.

I agree. I like the feel of the snap on and newer icon handles over the first icon pair I got.

I pointed out the grips in your last video but I just realized under your microscope they also reduced the gap on how far down the blade goes towards the pivot

Much more comfortable grips

It's really hard to show on video, but they really are a better quality grip.

I'm disappointed that I have all the old icon handles, went and bought the snapon ones cuz they were better handles then icon fixes them 😒 😅

Does your Snap-On close similar to the one I have here? I was kinda bummed to find the gap on them. I was curious if other pairs were similar.

@benjaminmasters5375 that's really a bummer considering what they cost. I like everything else about them aside from how they are ground I do believe the Snap-On has slightly better build quality over the Icon. I'm not sure it's three times better but I think it's better.
