Knippex "Pliers" are still far superior to this. They blew my mind when I first used them. I dont use normal wrenches at all anymore - the knippex just grip stuff so much more perfectly and with less chance of rounding and you can "ratchet" around the bolt even though they are open ended.
- edelans 4y agoSame. I first saw them in the hands of a plumber doing some work at home. I bought a pair the same day. It's this kind of tool that just makes me happy when I have an occasion to use it.
- emmelaich 4y agoI was wonder what these were so had a look. Found: in Australia we call them multigrips and I've got a few!
- Melatonic 4y agoNope - totally different. Those are known as Channel Locks over here. Watch a video of the knippex pliers in action - they are not the same at all!
- dunco 4y agothere are many knipex pliers which is why the other poster is confused. I presume the ones you refer to are the "pliers wrench" that someone had linked to above: https://www.knipex.com/products/pipe-wrenches-and-water-pump-pliers/pliers-wrenches-pliers-and-a-wrench-in-a-single-tool/pliers-wrenchespliers-and-wrench-single-tool/8603125 https://www.knipex.com/products/pipe-wrenches-and-water-pump...

- jansan 4y agoIf you are looking for an excellent ratchet that compliments the Knippex Pliers, take a look at Proxxon ratchet sets. They are a pleasure to work with and come in a nice metal case.
