NWS brand pliers and side cutter first impressions

[@oppanheimer]

I've been using those nws needle nose pliers at work and they are very good because they are thin, long and strong with a great grip.

The holes you are talking about at the bottom of the handles are for attaching a lanyard. A bungee cord that attaches to your belt for when working at heights.. nws seem like nice quality.

And or a spring attachment

Try the locking water pump pliers….they blow knipex out of the water, by far. And I’m a knipex fan. But I’m a good tool fan first and foremost. Way more comfortable, sharper teeth, and cost least for a comfort grip model than the non comfort grip knipex versions.

Yes it is a great feeling when you get REAL!! tools in your hand. :-) I do not know why but I feel that the NWS have been better then i.e. Knipex or Snap-On every time I have had to choose so I am ended up with mostly NWS a few better Knipex and a single "bad" Bacho mini bolt cutter that soon will get a kick out of here, replaced maybe by a Snap-On. :-)
