[@zachbradley9464]

They are 100% worth it

[@paulthompson5206]

I work in industrial maintenance/automation and I think you’ve hit the pros of these right on the head. I don’t carry them quite as often at my current employer (utility level battery manufacturer) because there’s a lot of acidic electrolyte around that loves to destroy even stainless tools. I’ve been blessed through my career to always have employer supplied tools, but I had always still carried mostly my own hand tools, because nothing is worse than working on stuff with crappy hand tools. But here, I leave most of my former “work” tools at home. Except for my Wera hex keys, which I think are a “wear item” anyway. Thanks for the vid! Always like to see what others think of tools I do or may use!

[@seniorcaptain6117]

Got both the joker set and the knipex pliers. There’re plenty of situations to use them both. One thing over the joker is that it might slip off on certain nuts since the grip is not very strong ,needing in this case the knipex pliers. On some tiny spaces when there’s no room for readjusting the knipex the joker is the tool to use. Happy having them both in my toolcase. That’s my experience with these tools.

[@rendel2358]

This is something a car mechanic would love in tight places where socket ratchet cant reach, but for the price and the small difficulty of coming off from my angle view doesn’t cut it. Good video.

[@rolandmdill]

I have a Joker 6004 XXL (24-32mm or 15/16" - 1 1/4") and it is such a great wrench! Absolutely ingenious design

[@jjbwood01]

Have you used it on any big 1 1/8' or 1 1/4, I was looking at getting one for flange work. Probs not for breaking loose but to get in places a socket cant. Im worried if I was to even slighy lean on it, it would break. Compared to a conventional 12'' adjustable, which you can give hell

[@pamdemonia]

I can definitely see the appeal of these. One thing I really like about my Knipex pliers that doesn't get mentioned enough is how slim they are (I mean the depth of the tool), which means they often fit into tight spaces much more easily, not to mention that two in my back pocket are no big deal! Just my 0.02.

[@MillisConstruction]

You really can’t beat the Pliers wrenches that’s for certain! They’re pretty much in my top few first quality tools I think someone should invest in Thanks for watching!

[@joeylo73]

I agree thats one of the aspects of Knipex that doesn't get mentioned enought. Knipex are relatively thin. Makes them convenient. Great comment.

[@chrisfyfe9212]

I have several of them , I haven’t made up my mind ! I’m , like you , a Wera fan !

[@boston-strong8887]

I completely agree with you in terms of comparison. There's nothing better than the Knipex adjustable wrenches. I have them in all sizes, and as much as I also love Wera tools, I think it would be redundant to invest in the Wera sets. Knipex really wins this one. -- Thank you for this video. You're right -- There are really no other demos for the Wera sets that are as detailed as this video.

[@drwisdom1]

After I got my first Knipex pliers wrench I recognized they had obsoleted adjustable wrenches and I have never used one again. So it is too late to make a better adjustable wrench because it is still an adjustable wrench and inferior to the pliers wrench.

[@MillisConstruction]

This is true! It would take an incredible innovation to beat the almighty pliers wrench 😎 Thanks for watching!

For me the Jury is still out , but I carry the small one in my belt holster . BTW , I own both Jokers , and Plierwrenches ! Addiction can be a thing !

[@MillisConstruction]

I agree. I mainly carry the two larger sizes as they’ve been the most useful for me. They’re definitely enjoyable to use in places where they work well.

[@davereed6612]

I hate the knipex pliers wrenches. It’s not a quality issue it’s just after years of using wrenches and sockets, I hate the angle I have to use them on fasteners. The only ones that I use are the 6” or 7” ones. For my trade everything is tight. These wera spammers are so much more useful for me. And they make an xL (19mm-24mm) and a xxl that goes from 24mm to 32mm. I don’t own those two I have the same set as you and I love them when grab a small bad and dont want to bring sockets, wrenches or adjustable. Love you videos by the way. Keep at it!

[@Centrikk]

Genius i dont know how many times this has come to my mind but i havent seen the solution.

[@michaelpayne8102]

I finally broke down and gave a set of these a try (I initially passed as I have the Knipex Wrench Pliers), these are going to be the go to for doing those nut adjustment jobs, I might even have to pick up one of the larger wrenches at some point.

[@CesarMartinez-br5qu]

Lol I just bought these today bruhhh I can’t stop buying 😭😭😭

[@MillisConstruction]

I know the feeling 😅

[@martinsnibbor7691]

I’m a sprinkler fitter I ordered the xl I’m going to try these. Very important a wrench doesn’t lose contact because rounding of corners can cause the sprinkler head to deform causing leaks. May be a game changer.

[@joeylo73]

Great video. Love how you compared them to Knipex plier wrenchs. I'm completely sold on Knipex. I've been using Knipex Plier Wrenchs for more than a decade now. I fix helicopters for the Army National Guard and I swear by Knipex.

[@urbanlumberjack]

The range seems really limiting. Like you’d need to carry several wrenches to do what one standard adjustable wrench could do.

[@MillisConstruction]

Exactly, the pliers wrenches have pretty much eliminated my adjustable wrenches but yes you’re right. These seem a lot more geared to someone who might run into a certain set of sizes in most of their work.

[@LemonySnicket-EUC]

These take one hand to use and adjust and in a tight spot the excel.

[@Joel_E]

Not only is the range of adjustment narrow, the size groupings are better-suited to Metric than to SAE bolt/nut sizes. I really wish they made a 7/16" to 9/16" version, as that would cover 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" bolts perfectly.

[@djjoey0812]

Honestly there's some videos on KZbin but if you get the set (wish it was demonstrated how big a size some of these would go) but the sizing on here is only for the sizes the feature works on, I know they go up a few more sizes then they say on the tool and it'll still works as a more normal wrench (aka no ratcheting)

[@garyp.7501]

@@Joel_E Well Wera is a German company, and Germany uses Metric stuff, so that makes sense that they would size these to the metric and then print on the SAE equivalent sizes.

[@03BigBear]

I’ve had this set for close to 3 months now and I love them. Yes, you don’t need the auto-adjust feature, but I think it’s innovative and very useful. I too don’t use the standard spanner style any longer. All-in-all, it’s way more efficient than what most of us are used to. 🌈🤙🏽

[@MillisConstruction]

Did you end up getting the one larger one that’s not in this set too? I think I’m going to have to.

[@03BigBear]

@@MillisConstruction As of yet, no I haven’t found the “need” for the larger one. Haha but I am trying to find reasons to get it lol.

I want one. I hate constantly having to reset a wrench, when there is no option for a ratchet to connect directly to the bolt. Wera Joker 6004 seems to have a solution to this.

[@xocelotx2753]

Amazing details and demonstrations. Thanks for helping me make a decision. 👍🏽

[@melgross]

These things would be incredibly annoying for me to use. The range is ludicrously small. I would be constantly looking for the correct wrench. I have lots of wrenches. Lots! Of the modern wrench types, I’ve found the Knipex to be the most useful overall. With these Wera, you basically need a wrench for each nut or screw size. That’s very expensive for what they are. The Knipex will also “ratchet” by loosening your grip slightly and turning it backwards. You only have to hold the top handle to apply full pressure, not both.

[@bwest-s1w]

I own the set of 4 jokers. I have never had a problem choosing the right size. I suppose if your fastener is at either end of the range of the joker one might pull out two including the size up or down. But how is that any different from a conventional wrench? If anything the range of the joker reduces the chances that you have to go back to box to get the next size up or down. Btw they are fantastic wrenches. Not for every situation but in some situations they are the best tool for the job. I also own full Knipex set which is also an excellent tool. If I lost either of these tools I would absolutely replace immediately.

[@RenovationsandRepair]

I still haven’t made up my mind about them ! The smallest iteration is the one I use the most often !

What are these “ Freedom Units “ you speak of , I personally wish we would go to 220VAC , and Metric ! Conversions = mistakes , 220 equals more compact Electrical panels !

[@MillisConstruction]

I keep getting tempted by that tiny pliers wrench, I just don’t use my super tiny cobras that much so I’m not sure if it would end up the same way especially with the non coated handles? Bet I get it anyway, I have a bad tool disease lol

[@littlejackalo5326]

Everyone has 220V in their house. Freedom units means that the US basically makes up their own rules and everyone else is of secondary concern. Should American citizens start dating, "English is the global language. Everyone else should switch to English"? I'll bet language causes WAY more problems than USCS to metric conversions do.

[@chrisfyfe9212]

@@littlejackalo5326 To be fair , US is a mixed bag , limited 220 -240 , the bulk is 110 . Language and Culture causes a lot of screwed up miscommunications ! I dig European household panels , they are so small and light ! The UK , uses a fair bit of 110 for construction ( or at least used to ) , prolly so they could use readily available US made tools ! What I hate with imperial is conversions , Thous. , tenths of thous ., 64ths etc , mm’s and Microns are way easier ! Way fewer mistakes ! That’s why Swiss , German stuff is way more precise than US stuff ! Why Sig Sauer , and Glock kick the Crap out of Colt & S and W !

[@smokey-bowls-1874]

America has stuck to Imperial because it's a more sensible system for the layman to use (and the prohibitively high cost of changing over road signs/educating everyone how to use metric). The Imperial measuring units were based around real world measurements of other common objects (foot, for example), so they are easier for the layman to visualize and conceptualize. Metric is great and a very precise measurement system, but most average people will never need the amount of precision that the metric system provides. As a wrench turner working with a mix of American, British manufactured (German engineered), & South Korean machinery, I end up using both systems extensively and am more readily able to visualize metric measurements. But to a barista or sandwich artist for example, metric is essentially useless.

[@jameshill4900]

Very similar to a Wurth set I have (also branded under GM Powertorque). Difference is the Wurth increase tightening on the fastener the more pressure you apply. Set has the same sizes as Wera.

[@SteinVarjord]

The Wera set also increases the tightening as you put more load on it.

I have the Knipex in 7" & 10" but I can see the benifit in these Wera...Im just not picturing the right applications where thrse would be better than the pliers wrenches. Maybe they are "more ideal" for dryer / water heater / stove gas line fittings? Do you have a favorite size you find yourself reaching for more than others?

[@larryseibold4287]

very interesting. good design, but for portability, they dont have enough range (too many). maybe if they were double ended? I found it telling in your video when you used one with the knipix on that gas line, you still removed it completely and then used your thumb again rather than let it ratchet in place.

You missed the fact that they only need 15degre of clearance to work (normal is 30degre) you can grab a bolt from the six edges with the grove in the teeth on the wrench so i you do one bolt move whit the flat side of the bolt and the next by grabbing the corner with the grove and then again the flat and so on you need to move the handle very Little if in a tight space...

[@DaBurntToaster]

the knipex and wera's are both necessities for an 'endgame' tool box imo, but between the 2, ill take the wera over the knipex every . single. fucking. time. its a ratcheting open ended wrench that covers multiple head sizes, if I need a tight grip to torque it down that last half turn, i can pull out a standard wrench, but getting nuts and bolts in tight spaces needs some sort of ratchet like mechanism, and this is perfect, ive used this style before and its 100% my go-to for 99% of situations that involve a bolt or nut

[@MillisConstruction]

I like your style, so many commenters prefer the Knipex over the Wera but for me I find that using both together is very effective. One side for holding a nut (Knipex) the other side to turn it (Wera)

[@manuzach]

I intend to put the tiny one through some work, little tiny work.

This looks like the nice set for a fancy tool-loving carpenter like me, but I wonder what real hardcore hands covered with black oil auto mechanics have to say about these? Any input?

[@LemonySnicket-EUC]

They work. And with one hand.

[@Ollv33]

mechanic won't use these, they work out of a large toolbox. this is more practical for someone who is on the move working out of a small toolbag.

Hello! Do you ship the instrument to Russia?

[@MillisConstruction]

Are you meaning the tools or did you want a channel sticker?

The only logical replacement for comfort grip Knipex Pliers Wrench, was a VDE Knipex Pliers Wrench. ⚡Shocking⚡ !

[@MillisConstruction]

This is true 😁 nothing really beats the mighty pliers wrench!

[@yuvalbcd1497]

These are a fun concept but the Knipex still as capable as this wrenches at thing they do. Too "specifically designed & designated to rotate hexagonal things" that's imo a "bad" solution. Instead of tackling the problem/issue/ process, it looks at the existing tool and the way it functions, and creats a tool which is functionaly the same but with better manners. Pretty much making a better tool for the user experience/ job, instead of solving problem by creating a new method to solve our problem with a previously non-existent device of their own creation. Am highly high #Pineexp

sometimes you dont need to reinvent the wheel. Don't own either tool at this point.

[@pj4433]

The wera does exactly the same, as you turn it tightens itself. You just don’t have to grip to tighten. The turning force tightens infinitely

All I have is my Harbor Freight or my fancy craftsman ones 😕

[@MillisConstruction]

Those craftsman ratchet wrenches used to be just awesome. I had a set too, I bet I still do somewhere. The ones from 15-18 years ago anyway lol
