Not on sale, but Kliens are $25 further down in the search.
The Klein pliers are very good, indeed. And only $5 more expensive than the the ones with a single rivet that you need to use both hands to fully open the jaws.

True. But they need to be made so that you can fully open the jaws using one hand. And the handles shouldn't occupy enourmous space when opened. Besides, an ability of the jaws to open really wide is always a plus.
Klein pliers described above fully satisfy all three parameters, and the manufacturing quality and movement smoothness are more than decent.

I was super cheap today during first day of Spring Black Friday:



35% off all these, plus I had $55 worth of HF cash to use.

Only $12.50 out of pocket...beat that...you CHEAP, sons of *****!!! :ROFLMAO:
^ BALLER ON A BUDGET! (y):LOL:(y)

I can beat that!……… I would have waited until AFTER 4-9 because I am a "cheaper than cheap SOB" (I refuse to pay for a HF ITC membership)

I'm a big fan of double jointed needle nose pliers. Great for reaching deep into a tight space where regular long needle nose won't open up.

$17.99 with the coupon.

Not on sale, but Kliens are $25 further down in the search.
My Bilitools $18 double-joint needle nose 13" pliers arrived yesterday. I am actually impressed with them. The jaw tips are perfectly aligned, and the pivot joints have excellent machining: not too tight and not too loose.

Follow-up on the "Speedwox" line of pliers currently offered on Amazon. Picked up at the post office today.
3 piece hose-grip pliers set $16.99
skinny 7-inch needle nose pliers $8.39
tiny 5-inch ring-nose pliers $7.99

Respectable workmanship. The hose ring pliers aren't nearly as nice as my ProAmerica set, but then, they were considerably less money.
The jaws on those skinny needle-nose pliers look fairly well lined up until you hold them up to the light. For the price, I'm not complaining.
The tiny ring-nose pliers are not angled at the ends, so their advertising them as "hose grip pliers" is a bit dubious.

All on Amazon only as far as I have been able to tell. Just search "Speedwox" - they make all kinds of stuff.

Are the ProAmerica ones worth the money? They are USA made, correct? I’d be using them weekly, so give me your opinion.
Good question. I bought them when they were first introduced when Bowers got them in. Yes, they are U.S. made.
ONE of them was used the other day when my buddy installed new heater hoses on the Ranger.
Other than that, they're all brand new.
They are more nicely finished than the Speedwox, but as to actual use, these really haven't seen any.
Make me an offer! :)

My Speedwox $12 pistol grip pliers arrived a few days ago. The pivot joint is a precision fit and the needle nose tips are perfectly aligned. But the wire cutting performance is very mediocre on 14ga solid copper and 16ga mild steel. Despite this, I am still keeping the pliers.
