Channellock order going in !

[kornjulio]

I've decided to treat myself to some more Channellocks! I'll be placing an order with Amazon sometime this weekend and am looking for input as to what else I might want to get - so here's your chance to chime in!

I do a fair amount of weekend wrenching maintaining the fleet of vehicles; so keep that use in mind.

OK - here's what I currently have:

317

349

908

430

What I've identified to order so far:

909

718

What else blue should I add & why?!?

The bent needle nose. But I don't think they are currently making them.

 

[krusty the clown]

410, 420 and 460

 

[Big Bad Jon]

420 and 460 for sure. They are great!

GL-10 & 12 would come in handy too.

the gl's are nice. not the traditional channelocks but if ind them more useful than the others at times.

 

[lbgradwell]

Agreed about the GLs; I like them better than the 400 series...

 

[kornjulio]

I was looking at the GLs....are they made in Meadville, PA too???

nutbuster the name is a good fit for it I have busted a few off with it.

I received a 909 for Christmas looks like a nice quality tool.
Good luck with the order!

I would skip the channelock linesmen and go with Kleins

I have this Channellock model that is very handy to use. I do like the spring feature specially for repetitive tasks.

I've been on a Channellock mission for a while now. I keep a list as I have many and am always looking for a new one to add. as of now I have-
440 430 420 426 424 442 422 410 414
GL6 GL10 GL12
317 3026 386
738 718
516 526 528 548 5410 558 960
Obviously i like my CL's
However, I own a couple of CL cutting pliers (dykes and such) I am not a fan of the way their cutting pliers work. Give me a Klien anyday.
Yes, they are wholly made in Meadville PA.

sorry to hear that... oh well, your keeping some americans busy making some mediocre tools

He already owns the 349s... (And they're excellent!)
