A great plier design with the smooth jaws if you have the space for the handles spread apart. How about making one that grips smaller nuts and bolts? I noticed the 2 parrot jaw handles are closer than my plier wrench for the same size nut. Still in tight spaces neither are a replacement for a single handle adjustable wrench in my opinion.
I'm confused about the pinch guard, I can't tell what they're talking about or how it works. All I see is the guy quickly moving his thumb away as if there's an imaginary spring, I can't see anything that would prevent pinching.
FoodOnCrack The Raptor pliers works great on rusted bolts and bolts in tight areas - especially no automotive applications. With the bottom jaw reduced in size you can rotate it more before reapplying the tool. The Pliers Wrench would also work here but is meant more for chrome and other soft finishes since there are not teeth to mark them up.
@@KnipexToolsUSA I have several sizes of the plier/wrench series. These don’t seem as though they have more than a minor advantage in just a couple of use areas. If the tools weren’t so expensive, I suppose I could justify having sets of both, but otherwise, no. The wrench/pliers seem more versatile, and work very well on rusted screw heads.
I don’t really understand the advantage of these over the Knipex wrench/pliers that I use. They do have a smaller head, but otherwise, why would I buy these when I have the others? Are they that much better for this?

Joe Davies I think its because Knipex is a German word not an English one so it doesn't use the English terminology, like the K is silent in Knife. Also I was in Germany last year and I wondered into a hardware store and the people working there pronounce it with a K.
+iShootBandits knife was the wrong example, the k was too long. it should be short and swift like in kick, kim. if this narator would pronounce these words it would sound like ka-ick and ka-im ;)
I never seize to be amazed by the level of ignorance, even and especially since you are living in a 1st world country in the 3rd millennium, with all the opportunities of a modern education system and a world connected by the internet at your finger tips... this is why everybody looks down on Americans. And there is an American posting this exact same comment to every single Knipex video on RU-vid... ahh-ha-ha-haaa. Painful.
The Channellock 410 Nut Busters are 100x better because they have teeth and are like half the price. You’re not going to be loosening any round stock or rounded nuts with a toothless tool lol.
