Crescent flush cutter at Home Depot.

[Brownsfan]

Home Depot sells a flush cutter mini needle nose pliers combo for 13.97. They have always been USA made. Well not no more. Now China made. I lost my flush cutter and went to buy a replacement set. Thank goodness there were some USA made ones behind the Chinese ones on the back of the peg hooks. So if you were debating on getting them go asap and look at the back of the peg hook. Another quality reasonably priced USA made tool bites the dust. Oh the price is still 13.97.

Seems the way of the world. I'm gonna have to check out my local HD

Been putting off buying that little set, not sure why since it's only $14. I hope my HD still has some left.

A year or so ago I bought a bunch of USA made crescent adjustable wrenches that were on closeout. They were being replaced by Chinese made. Same with files.

I bought that set, the flush cutters are junk but the mini pliers are ok. Mine are USA, one is labeled Crescent one is Xcelite.

I have the Xcelite version of the pliers, they're nice. I was hoping to get some good flush cutters but I'm standing in HD looking at them as I write this, China.

Look at the area by the soldering irons and the pliers section. They are stocked in both places. I found the USA made ones by the soldering irons. With dust on the packages.

Well hell, I'm glad I came in.

If those are 2000 series Journeyman Linemans that kits a smokin deal!

They are! J2000-9NE. Cool thing is, those strippers are the only set of Kurves I didn't have.

I'm gonna have to check my HD for that combi kit

 

[Richard Cranium]

I am not sure if my klein strippers are curved or not

 

[Brownsfan]

I already have those strippers and linesman pliers. For that price it sure wouldn't hurt to have back ups. I would have no real use for the multi tool thingy. I use mostly metric.

 

[FigureItOut]

Yeah, I think if it was metric it'd get a trial spot in my main bag. They'll be handy around the house sometime.

I'm gonna go check the other HD for the Crescent set, wish I hadn't put off buying them.

Now I need to go to Home Depot. Great. LOL

The multi nut driver thing is pretty cheesy. Almost kitchen drawer cheesy.

If you want US-made mini pliers and shears (flush cutters or otherwise), I highly recommend Xuron. Reasonably priced and high quality.

Xcelite was my old standby, but their quality has been frustrating me lately.

Wow, that's a steal. Even if the multi nut driver is cheesy you could wing it over your left shoulder and pocket the strippers and 2000 series Linemans. That's a heck of a price. Those Linemans alone cost over $42 on Amazon.

Yup.

I've looked at two different local Home Depots for this sale pack and came up empty. Anybody else see this deal locally?
