Got some surface rust on my strippers. Just curious as to how you guys clean your tools? It’s the one tool I use daily and want to keep them clean

Thanks in advance!

Just bought a pair of 10” angled diags yesterday. Used them today at work and the handles have a slight wobble already. There’s also a little bit of blade gap is this normal please don’t eat me alive in the comments. I’m just asking a question. They cut great btw and i like them much more than the d240 whatever kliens i was using prior

A few years back, the missus started buying me the limited edition Knipex tools for my birthday and Christmas. I’ve recently added a couple myself that were a little harder to find.

They’re some of my favourite tools, so I already had multiples of each. The limited editions are purely a collection that I eventually plan to display in the workshop.

Let me know if you can think of any others I could add to the collection.

Pliers wrench 125 saving the day!!🫡 busted airline no problem keep this bad boys along with the cobras 125 in my bagpack

Pretty stoked to add these to the toolbag.

I just bought these Knipex 85 01 250 SmartGrip auto-adjusting pliers from Amazon.

I noticed the jaws/teeth don’t always completely close together. There’s a small gap at the top, like you can see in the pictures.

The mechanism is spring-loaded, so I’m not sure if this is just how these pliers are designed or if something is wrong with mine.

For anyone who owns the Knipex 85 01 250, is this normal?

Or should I get a replacement while I’m still within the return window?

Have tons of Knipex and this is the first set of 250 mm chrome Cobras! I have to say they are impressive, putting them to work tomorrow! I really only have the pliers wrench in chrome and I think technically the Holiday 180mm are chrome too.
Do prefer the chrome?

Has anyone ever encountered this before? Never seen this.

Thanks to this sub there is a new addiction in my life: Knipex.

Thanks guys...

I bought my first one in spring, April or May. Last week two more arrived.

This is a photo of my new Knipex collection. The two on the left are the new ones.

Edit: Oops! I forgot that I had already posted these last week.

What is the next larger?

Got the top two today. How does anoyone live day to day without something like this? Maybe our lives are different...

Simple question:

It's an awesome tool, but why would you need 1000V insulated wire strippers? Is anyone out there stripping live wires?

Rate this setup, the footprint is similar to an iphone pro max or Samsung ultra.

Contents: micro and standard bits, knipex cobra 125, mini ratchet with extender, 4mm bit adaptor, olfa slim utility knife.

Weight is approximately 200 to 300gm (i have no idea really)

How would you improve this setup and why?

I had a mix of all the brands, one month ago i decided it is time to switch to Milwaukee... I am installing windows and building super yachts. I heard about Milwaukee addiction and figured out it is better to buy all the tools i need at once 😎😉. Like i can not find any other tools i need for my work on the official website. My Packout is barely holding all the tools in, i have to put them in exact order so it fits. 😅🫣 What do You think guys do i need anything more for window installation? Paid 4300eu/$4600.

By far best pumps and plier wrenches in the game. A plumbers best friend
