Summary: Fabulous quality tool 2008-09-11
Comment: My husband loves, loves, loves his Klein diagonal cutting pliers. He purchased his original set years ago and they held up well through so much useage (he's a very handy guy and has used them in literally dozens of applications). I've used them a few times myself and I find them easy to hold in the hand (designed well so no strain on your hand when using them, even repeatedly) and just so functional!
He finally managed to hurt his pair through an unfortunate incident with an unexpectedly live wire, which arced and left a bit of a groove-out on one side of the cutting surface. Surprisingly, even with the defect they still work fairly well, although not as perfectly as before he damaged them. So this handy-man is getting a new pair of Klein's for Christmas in his stocking because cheap immitations are nothing compared to Klein's -- get them for the real deal!

Summary: Great Tool for Pulling Nails and Details 2008-06-09
Comment: I have the blue handled version of this tool. Same thing just made for cutting harder wire. It is very well made and hasn't rusted yet although it is best to spritz these tools with WD40 (the only real use for the stuff other than taking grease off of car paint) to be safe. I have used these mostly for pulling nails that are hard to get at. I don't use them for electrical as I find they are not near as handy and unlike the previous reviewer I cannot easily cut 12 gauge romex with them - it is simply too hard on the hands to use them for this purpose. 10 gauge Romex would be out of the question. I also don't believe that they are intended for cutting Romex and unless you want to stain and hurt your hands I wouldn't use them. To cut Romex, the proper tool is the Klein linesman's pliers. That tool cuts the Romex without much effort.

Summary: Quality tools for electricians especially. 2007-12-18
Comment: I have said this before in my reviews of Ridgid plumbing tools: Every trade out there has a tool maker that cateers to them. Plumbing tools Its Ridgid. Drywall tools? It's Walboard. Carpenters? Stanley/Craftsman. Mechanics? Snap On. And of course, for electricians, it's Klein.
Are these brands etched in stone? No! There are some mechanics who will use other brands (Mac, Matco, Cornwell, S-K, Armstrong,and craftsman can all be found in garages all over.) Is it blasphemy to use ridgid tools for anything but plumbing? No! But 8 or 9 out of 10 electricians seem to rely on Klein as the brand of choice.
Go to any big box store or electrical supply house and in the electrical tools section will be Klein.
Do you have to be a contractor to own pro grade tools? No! I am certainly no pro, but I have come to have a very expensive addiction to better quality tools! Looking at my reviews, you can see that I am getting away from the consumer brands like craftsman and black and decker to the better quality brands.
There is a difference- Both tools may accomplish the same task, but the better quality tools feel better in your hands, last longer, are built stronger and often give better results without costing a whole lot more.
These pliers, for example are the only tool I need to cut wires to lenth, strip the outer jacket of insulation from the conductors, and twist wires together or "braid" them.
These pliers are about 8 inches in length and a sturdy high quality steel construction. The cutters really maintain their sharpness through the years. The rubber handles are quite comfortable to use for long periods.

Summary: Excellent for demo 2007-03-17
Comment: If you have ever used a pare of wire cutters, you know about all there is to know about them. These however have an angled head witch is perfect for removing nails, staples and anything else sticking just above a flat surface (Not as good as a ~catspaw~ but vary close). I've had mine about a week and it seems to be holding up, no handle wobble or ware at all, they haven't deformed when cutting nails and they feel good in the hand when doing so. If your going to be doing something other than just cutting wire I'd find a pair at your local elec supply and put your hand around one to see for your self.

Summary: Excellant cutting tool 2004-06-09
Comment: Klein hand tools are by far the best there is for wiring. I have wired several houses with these hand tools and have been nothing but impressed. Klein's wire strippers are great for stripping wire and for cutting here and there, but if you doing repeated cutting of Romex or any other wire 10 gauge to 24 guage this is the tool you need. It will easily and comfortably cut through Romex with one move. An absolute must for my wiring tool box.
