[@maxlvledc]

Don't need one...but definitely want one

[@txtoolcrib]

I know exactly what you mean.

[@christianness8983]

You'll probably discover that you need one, once you get a pair.

[@Triaz357]

Knipex needs to come out with a multi tool. Yeah it may cost $200 but it would no doubt be awesome and help drive up the standards for the market.

[@txtoolcrib]

That would be special.

[@mjnz]

Have a pair of the Engineers from several years ago. They are good for very specific scenarios but man, one small slip and they will blister your hand just like a Wave! I love the several Knipex tools I have but didn't know these existed. (Edit: I see now they are brand new). Will definitely be getting a pair. Also agree about Knipex - very much worth the premium for all I own. I remember first time paying what I thought was a ridiculous amount for the piano wire cutters (I just use them as all purpose wire and coat hangar cutters) but 8 years later and still sharp, I would have paid twice as much. Now I have many Knipex tools and price is no longer a consideration.

[@danieljohnson6684]

Everyone laughs at me at work, I do apartment maintenance. They can't wrap thier heads around what my tools cost me, but once they try them they keep coming back. Knipex, wera and wiha are great tools. Wasn't a huge fan of wiha until recently picked up thier slimline torque screwdriver and the slimline pop-up screw driver, I wanna but the allen keys next

[@mjnz]

@@danieljohnson6684 I can no longer wrap my head around buying big box junk! Once you have good tools that perform well and possibly last a lifetime, hard to go back.

[@mjnz]

BTW, I applaud Menards because they do carry a collection of Knipex, albeit a small assortment

[@corymerrigan2818]

I’ve carried the Snapon slip joint pliers for 7 years every day at work and home at times. They are starting to get worn out so I thought I’d shop around and try something new. I picked up these pliers and carried them for a month. I loved the vertical grooves on the end and the tooth set up. But the push button adjustment was not advantageous to one handed use or quick adjustments. The Snapon pliers have become my main carry again but if they create a three position slip instead of the button I’d definitely carry them again.

[@billdirlam744]

If you make your living using hand tools you can't go wrong with Knipex. They are very well made and oftentimes have unique features. Like most premium tools you need to keep them in a secure place whenever you work outside of a controlled environment. Good tools have a way of disappearing.

[@txtoolcrib]

Couldn’t agree more.

[@PankajKumar-vt5wd]

Finally, got this from Amazon India, hoping to see mini version of this plier in near future. 100mm version of cobra xs and plier wrench xs are already doing great.

[@mike1983mn]

Great video. I knew these existed, but didn’t know exactly why I might need them. That question has now been answered. Thanks!

[@PacRimElectric]

Working with luminares I run into lots of stripped, rounded and painted over fasteners so my vampliers have been a God send however when I found out about knipex coming out with their twin grips I immediately pre ordered dem bad boys. I enjoyed your review. It was well thought out and you brought some great points about the pros and cons. Thank you

[@txtoolcrib]

Thank you sir, for taking the time to watch.

[@willb3018]

I like Knipex. These twin grips look good. I need to check them out. I have the Vampliers and they are awesome. Ironically, the best use for me turned was unexpected. I have used the Vampliers twice to get screws(a #10 and #12) out of tires in my car. I was going nuts trying to get them out until I remembered the Vampliers. Twisted them right out. Looks like Knipex would do likewise.

[@llanbull]

I recently discovered knipex pliers wrench and now I'm hook. I like your videos. I was actually in leatherman binge and I enjoyed your reviews on them. Then I realize you also have knipex reviews. I bought the 7" size pliers wrench bec. of your review and it was a perfect size for me to carry at work. I pair it with the surge. After buying my first knipex I bought this one and a cobra. So glad see to you review this one. I was thinking I might be able to use these at work too for those stripped screws/bolts.

[@txtoolcrib]

They are both very good brands in their own right.

[@chrisfyfe9212]

Just grabbed a pair , very impressed ! I might get a pair of the Vampliers/ Engineers , for tiny stuff , or stuff with broken off heads .

[@chrisfyfe9212]

I think I’ll go with the Knipex slip joints , in combination with the Vampliers needle nose’s ! That will handle most messes ! I can’t wait for the new baby plier wrenches .

[@bahjinelson3986]

These remind me of my Mac Tools P11HD-S Straight Nose Long Reach Heavy Duty Pliers, which are one of the more useful pliers I own. You should give them a look. This TwinGrip just made my short list of new tools, thanks!

[@v.e.7236]

Found a set of the Vampliers on Ebay for just $35. Later searches found them at over $50. Love these pliers for their gripping ability. I work on old classic cars/trucks and there are always screws/bolts w/ rounded or corroded heads. Just worked on an old Corvair that seemed as if it were held together by the rust - Vampliers made easy (relatively) work of the many rusted out screws/bolts.

[@samnass]

they are cheaper under the original brand name "neji saurus" ...

[@richardconnor7703]

I love those pliers now they need to make a full set like the cobras

[@raindropsrising7662]

Awesome introduction. Thanks for putting this together. Will grab a TwinGrip for sure.

[@mikecurtis1111]

I've found the small groove near the front to be great for holding tiny brad nails or finishing nails in place to allow you to get them started, especially when needing to nail something overhead.

[@Savagetechie]

I've had some very good deals on knipex stuff over the years.... it was only when I totalled it up I realised my collection would pay 3 months rent for my flat if I bought them all today. Amazing tools though.

[@txtoolcrib]

It doesn’t take long to add up, but if you use them, then they are worth every penny.

[@platoscavealum902]

👍 thank you for making this video

[@teapeabartle4046]

Knipex are also going to release the plier wrench xs soon I hope you review them.

[@txtoolcrib]

I certainly will.

[@gearstuffs8007]

Very detailed explained! 2 thumbs up!

[@txtoolcrib]

Thank you very much.

[@mytube2013]

How much torque the twingrip can handle as screw extractor?

[@jeffreywolf5235]

The only thing I regret about my double grip pliers is I didn't get the comfort grip handles

[@R2_D3]

I love my Knipex pliers! Ordered the twingrip today for €22,50 +€6,95 shipping. One of my new favorites is the 87 41 250!!

[@propane1777]

Holy cow, the shipping is 1/3 the price of the tool...

[@R2_D3]

@@propane1777 Yeah, but the price of the tool was the cheapest, by far more than €6,95. Note: The shipping price for a packet is the same for packets up to 10KG.

[@Smallfi5h]

I wish they would do a 125mm version of this

[@AlexanderMason1]

engineers and vamplier are made by the same manufacturer and probably in the same factory and obviously look identical aside from different colors. I have heard however that they sometimes different steels for the different brands. Have you notice ANY difference in quality?

[@bilakos1987]

I hope we see smaller sizes of these as well.

[@emszabi]

That small half round is for spring clamps.

[@JonGadget]

Great tooll great review as always Ben 👍

[@txtoolcrib]

I appreciate that very much, thank you.

[@uniquehorn1480]

Knipex has a very deep product line, so they make just about anything you will need in a type of pliers. When you figure out which one(s) will be most useful for YOU, you'll quickly see that they are worth every penny. I do think those Vampliers look really interesting, though.

[@BobSmith-dm3vp]

wow, This guy is good, Thumbs up

[@SachsVDE]

They should be called Tadpole Pliers...Very Cool Tool..👍🏼

[@bilakos1987]

Quite nice. I have a couple of Engineer pliers, and I like them. How about we get the TwinGrip head on Cobra handles? Cobra Grip? Cobra Twin? :D

[@larryborkstrom3580]

Got both the twin grip knipex and vamplier don't know know Wich pair I like better

[@gear_addicted]

In Europe, we'll have it in September...

[@WizzRacing]

Damn things are back ordered till December

[@mingshey]

Thanks for the wonderful review. Do you have the new pliers wrench XS in mind to review? (Designation number, from the KNIPEXupdate2021 vid, 76-100?) edit: should be 86-100 or more specifically 86-03-100

[@txtoolcrib]

I’m definitely going to pick those up when they are released.

[@GrumpyoldPlumber]

I have never found myself wanting a pair of slip joint pliers before. Not including water pump pliers.

[@ligitmuffin]

Wish they made a 150mm for edc

[@michaelkhiev2070]

Great review as usual 👍

[@txtoolcrib]

I appreciate that

[@thekracken4572]

Engineer is not the designer of that style of pliers. They did make it popular again but the design is about 100yrs old.

[@andrewfarnsworth7178]

I don't know if I have a big enough discretionary tool budget to stay subscribed to this channel...... I have 2 pair of pliers wrenches off my list and yet the list grows larger. Do I really need 2 kidneys? I don't drink that much.

[@txtoolcrib]

Lol

[@dalebennett5227]

I bought my Knipex Twin Grip Pliers from KCTOOLs, when they first came out. They are around $40.00

[@bricofast]

Show 👍 lengths here from Portugal 👍🤝🇵🇹

[@UscITA-i5w]

250 it's the best

[@harveysmith100]

Engineer didn't invent that tooth pattern. They have been around for decades in what is known as gas fitter's pliers.

[@txtoolcrib]

I did not know that, thank you for bringing it to my attention.

[@bruceclyne5254]

You fill a gap in tool reviews: a guy who uses tools every day who maintains his objectivity and who (mostly) buys his own tools. Go finger…

[@txtoolcrib]

Well thank you I appreciate that.

[@abelchang8367]

超級好的介紹

[@chriseason2785]

In English, we don't pronounce the "K"

[@anterich3752]

This is not an English word. We also say Knödel here, not nödel.

[@patrickphelan6930]

Ure not pronouncing ' knipex' correctly. How would u pronounce ' knife'?

[@AnonAnon-qi4ts]

Ki-ni-pex. Watch the knipex official videos. "Ny-pex" is wrong. They are Germans.

[@Mastermindyoung14]

A German might pronounce it differently 😜

[@anterich3752]

You are wrong.

[@robertb.3651]

The K is NOT silence !!! 🤦🤦🤦

I have both and love them. 😎🇯🇵🇩🇪🔩🔧🧛🏻 #VamPlier #Knipex
