got real sick and tired of the ****** needle nose pliers that I own. Ordered a 6" and 8" knipex
Did you research those? A lot of users here complain of their flexibility.

They don't have the spring so they don't really need the cover.

I blame all of you! Now I just need to find a use for them.
I use mine to cut TIG filler wire, that's all I use them for, but they work great.

They are different pliers is why. The ones in your picture are PZ-59. They are much bigger than the PZ-58 which come with a cover. In terms of weight they are about double and length they are about 30% extra. Very noticeable size difference when they are together. I have both.
Just looked at the box on both. PZ-59 (no cover) is 204mm length and 300g weight. PZ-58 (with cover) is 160mm length and 130g weight.
PZ-59 cutting capacity 3.2mm and hardness HRC60 (+-2). Screw head diameter 3-15mm.
PZ-58 cutting capacity 1.2mm and hardness HRC56(+-2). Screw head diameter 3-9.5mm.

It has been a very good week, found a great deal on used tools and then an even better deal on new Gray Canada, knipex etc. Not shown are a Craftsman 12" bandsaw, Mac and Beach roller cabs, 3 steel parts organizers, a mint Beach 12 drawer chest ....

Digging through my storage, I came across this old rechargeable Rotozip. I bought it and used it for one side job, threw it in a box when I moved shortly after, and have wondered where it was ever since. I plugged it in and it looks to actually be charging!

I finally did it, stepped into the back of a Snap-On truck. Walked out with these.
I think this dealer and I have a bright future ahead of us!
This is my clever signature.

Incredibly jealous of that green hammer... how many ounces? I tried to trade my red one for a green one, but the dealer never got it in before my internship ended!

Forgot to take a picture before I left work, but I picked up a pair of Mac (Irwin) Locking Hose Pinch Pliers.

got a hell of a deal on it and wanted a scope, also the information packed into the guided component tester and the snap on troubleshooter is worth its weight in gold

Stamped on the other side for warranty?

I cant answer for 90zcar, but I can tell you that I bought a set of these last winter and quickly returned them the following week because they were NOT stamped. Between my dealer, and SO corporate, I was led to beleive (or so they thought) that laser etched tools are far better than stamped, and most guys prefer tools this way. They actually wanted me to believe that because I preferred stamped tools, I was in the minority. el oh el....
My dealer happily returned them for me, and I bought something else that same week. But I will keep my eyes on future SO purchases and be sure to only buy stamped tools.

put in a bunch of OT, so was finally able to justify a few toys.
Lincoln 210MP, beeing eyeballing this for a while. Finally pulled the trigger, and had a few beads laid minutes after unpacking. Looking forward to getting some time to use it for a while.
Makita SP6000 with 2x 118" tracks and clamps. Bought 2 long tracks after reading many reviews wanting the typical 55" track to be a bit longer. This way I can cut it down to a 60" and maybe sell the 58" left over, or cut it down for shorter cross cut lengths.

NOPE. IT ***** and I even said something to my snap on dealer and he thinks it's stupid as well.
I will say this tho. I doubt in my entire life I will not use this enough that I will ever "wear" the etching off.
Second of all I highly doubt I have to worry about breaking this on a 10mm nut....
If this was on a high use, high dollar ratchet or something similar...no way would I have gotten it. But it's on one simple crowsfoot wrench that I needed to do a task and now it will sit in my toolbox tip the next time I need it years from now lol

Been doing contracting work on the side, needed to get a couple basics.
Estwing E20S leather handled 20oz. rip hammer USA
Milwaukee demolition screwdriver set. Taiwan. For only $10 at Home Depot, seemed like a decent deal, good reviews online. 5/16" slotted and #2 Philips, both have fully hexagonal shanks with metal striking caps and nice dual material grips.
Total for both at HD was $42.65 with tax.

I'd like to thank this forum for putting onto this Mil. M12 Ratchet. I've been wanting a cordless ratchet for some time and couldn't decide which to buy. Lots of good info here led me to a good decision.
You will love that M12 ratchet! I just did a motor swap on one of my vintage Honda trail bikes and used the M12 for just about everything.
Very impressed with the torque of these M12 tools. The M12 ratchet is what I was after and it does not disappoint. I can manually crack loose a tight bolt and then spin it the rest of the way off. the battery (of course its new) holds up real well with heavy use.
