With the last facebook/sywr coupon gimmick I upgraded the drawer with all Knipex so I really couldnt justify spending on these. The tag on the display hook said they were $29 for the pair so after 5 off coupon that isnt to shabby. I also see that I was correct and late to the party. Just been so disgusted with c-man lately that i havent wandered the aisles or lurked the website in a while.

Probably right with the warranty, but the Knipex were all less than free with the angles. Ended up with a few extra pair of duplicates as well so should be covered for a while. Plus the drawer needed the pop of the handle color.

The facebook coupon thing is over, but about 3 weeks back, Sears offered a $20 credit in points for a $20 purchase. Several people rolled these over a couple or more times. Sears caught onto that and changed it, but some got great deals on stuff they wanted for a bit. I did pick up my first Knipex pliers wrench in the deal for all of about $20 with the coupons going on. I have these Knipex rebadged as Craftsman Cobras too. For those wanting cheaper, Irwin makes a very similar version of Cobras that also work great for much lower cost. Maybe 90% of the goodness of the real Knipex. The Cobras and the Pliers Wrenches are the things I think are unique and special with Knipex. Other stuff I would buy in other cheaper US brands, like Channellock or Klein, but those are worth picking up in some fashion due to their uniqueness.

The $20 for 20 one doesn't work anymore. That was the one I was talking about. Some of them do still work. The 10 for 20 and 10 for 30 ones I think. Not as good a deal but still a good deal. - Paul
