Knipex pliers on clearance at lowes

[bluechevy94]

Just a heads up.I just left Lowes and they have the knipex pliers on clearance.Didn't have the extra cash to buy any but I am going back.Anyways here's a pic for you guys.

 

[Roots]

Thanks for the heads up, think I'll drive by at lunch

 

[Bob C]

Thanks. Best pliers you can have.

 

[redwrench60]

Does this mean they are dropping the Knipex line?

 

[byoungblood]

Probably not. They did the same last summer too.

 

[JASTECH]

I may have to get a Lowes card now. I really like my Knipex, not tried NWS to compare.

 

[jjjrmx5]

That's a fair price for the Cobras.

I may have to sneak over to my local Lowes today.

Damn you. LOLOLOLOLOL.

 

[onelochevy]

Damn i was just there this morning. I even thought about checking out the knipex stuff but didnt do it.

 

[bluechevy94]

Well I'm headed back yo Lowes to pick up some as soon as I get the ole bean check cashed.I have a Lowes card but I would get in big trouble if I used it for something like that.Its a company card and the boss is really **** even if you pay for the stuff you put on it.Can't blame him though.

 

[cmandp]

My local Lowes doesn't carry Knipex... What's up with that?

 

[thesilverone]

^did you check in the electrical section?

 

[ihateminimumwage]

Damn you! More money I don't really have to spend!

 

[cmandp]

^did you check in the electrical section?

Not throughly, but I did walk through there a couples months ago, I would think I would have noticed a whole bunch of pliers.

 

[osborn.ozzy]

Never seen knipex at any lowes

 

[RKA]

They don't stock it in the regular tool aisles. As mentioned, you have to run through the electrical section and look for the small stash of tools within that aisle. You'll find it near the multimeters and other stuff.

I pickd up my first pair of Knipex here in Toledo Lowes they are on sale.

 

[Mickey O]

Thanks. Best pliers you can have.

I wouldn't go that far, they're decent pliers but there are plenty better, on the pliers wrench front they are tops.

 

[archirelic]

Prices are alright...definitely lower than they have been for a while, but they have been lower than that at Lowes before. Plus, you can usually find online vendors that are lower still than a lot of the Lowes listings.

The automatic insulation strippers do seem like a legit deal at that price.

Thanks for the heads up.

 

[shoturtle]

now sears has them on sale as well.

 

[mr.speaker]

The electrical tools sections have some good tools ..

Lowes keeps their Channel locks and Knipex products there and Home depot keeps their Klein tools products there.

 

[oldtools]

Cool, the plier come with a free nut.

 

[willhollin]

So how much do the Knipex plier wrenches go for on sale?

 

[shoturtle]

at sears about 2x a years, lowes about once a year.

 

[redwrench60]

Cool, the plier come with a free nut.

Lol I dropped by there while I was out and got a pair of 12" cobra pliers and got my free nut too!

 

[5mall5nail5]

Going tomorrow to check out my local lowe's I have never seen knipex there (and I do go down the electrical aisle)

 

[shoturtle]

One of the 3 lowes by me got most the knipex clean out. Only couple pieces left. You can also check sears. They are the same price.

 

[osborn.ozzy]

brb going to lowes and sears (luckily they are within 1/4 miles of each other.)

 

[PeterT]

If you don't find anything at Lowes or Sears.. The guy in this link comes highly recommended and his prices on Knipex and NWS are about the same as Lowes clearance.

Went to lowes, wasnt impressed with the "clearance price"

 

[tulbox]

Hello...I work for Knipex
Lowe's is not dropping Knipex. Just lowering the prices to be more competitive.

 

[bcradio]

Went to lowes, wasnt impressed with the "clearance price"

EXACTLY!!!

Last time they went down in price, it was much lower than now. Glad I stocked up then.

 

[buening]

If you look closely at the sticker, it says "NEW LOWER PRICE" as in its not clearanced but will be that price from now on. They use the same color stickers for clearance items, so its easily confused

 

[Squankum]

Cool, the plier come with a free nut.

Metric or SAE?

Made in Germany or ...?

i asked an associate at lowes about that, they said that those "new lower price" tags are not clearanced items, and are actual new prices.

this includes the 1/4 socket sets, 3/8socket sets, knipex stuff, some of the wrenches, etc...

seems hard to believe they would go from $20+ bucks for a socket set, and change it to $4.97

I managed to snag a pair of Knipex cutters for less than I otherwise would have had to pay. Not exactly stellar pricing, but still about 20% off I think from the usual price, so I was happy. Kudos to the OP, you've helped feed the Knipex addiction for another day.
