Klein J203-8N Heavy Duty Journeyman Pliers

In this review I'm comparing Klein vs Knipex 2611200 Pliers. This was my first time to order pliers from either company. I had a couple other Klein tools which I really liked, and had an initial bias toward Klein. But unfortunately, I was disappointed. What I DON'T like about Klein: 1) Some reviewer...

Super durable, strong, excellent grip, very comfortable If it had a spring to reopen, I'd love this for chainmaile more than I do.

These Klein J203-8N long nose pliers are the ones I’ve used for many years and still carry them in my tool bucket every day. The one thing I really like about these pliers over the standard Klein long nose pliers is the #12 stripping notch in the center of the cutter. I first good use I found for it...

Perfect jaw alignment at the tip, no gaps at the cutter and can hang onto a slim business card in the non serrated/flats part of the jaws. Handles are just right and not too thick and not too slim, I only wish I would have gotten these journeyman pliers sooner. This is now my 3rd set of 8 inch klein...

I returned a pair of 8-inch Knipexs #2611200 pliers for these. The Knipexs handles were too small and made the tool feel very unbalanced in your hand. I was also concerned that the tips might break or bend because they were very thin. But these Klein's are a very "heavy duty" pair of pliers and are ...

Had a nice knipex needle nose pliers for years until one of my boys bent the end and I was unable to fix them. Since I had some kline tools and have always been impressed with them, I decided to purchase these. Awesome needle nose pliers and definitely the best I've ever owned. And that's with 40 ye...

You can feel the quality of these pliers right out of the package. Klein tools are arguably the Best tools in the business. There is a reason why they have been around since 1857. I like how the handle of these pliers fits in your hand. The yellow color makes it easy to distinguish between other too...

Stiff action as expected. Found that that's not a bad thing. When trying to hold small pieces I don't even have to hold the handles and it stays in the jaws. The needle nose is not as needly as it turned out I needed. They are very strong, but they don't fit into the very small spaces I sometimes wo...

I always search high and low for made in the USA tools. I am certainly willing to pay extra for them too. Klein tools never disappoint. Yes they might be more expensive, but they are tools you will give your grandkids. These are not throw away, might never be used tools. Go Klein, you will not regre...

With over 20 years experience in the trade, if your doing it without these then you are doing it wrong. I have used and abused them and about the only thing you can do to jack them up is cutting a live wire so….. don’t do that! These and a good 6-1 screw driver can get you through most residential j...
