38612 Long Nose Locking Pliers with Quick Release Handles, Ideal for Tight Spaces, High Torque and Gripping Power, 9-Inch

I use these for plumbing actually. I needed a quality vise grip to hang onto a fitting while using my free hands to unsweat a copper fitting. Previously I bought a Milwaukee vise grip and it was pretty disappointing. It felt like a Harbor Freight tool at a premium price. Klein made a great hand tool here. Feels great, Looks Great & Works Great!

Nice quality. Unlike its main (vise locking plier) competitor, the plier ends resist rotation. The adjuster is also easier to turn. Very solid locking plier I would recommend.

The adjusting screw is easy to use. Much easier than your standard "thumb wheel". They open and close easy enough. Best part is they DO NOT have the pinch point of regular Vice Grips with the release handle.Handles have some padding to be easy on the hands. They are very sturdy and do not have the "wiggle" of the vice grips with release handle.

Perfect ‘father son’ combo. Great grip, easy to use, much better than my old units that constantly slipped/failed.

I’m sure I will find many uses for this great little tool, but I specifically bought it to pull the little stem post for the hood latch on our car. The car came to us with that piece broken and it used to be easy to pull, but became more stuff over time and rather than deal with the replacement part that has to be threaded all the way through from the inside of the car to the hood, a mechanic recommended this tool to me. It works perfectly, so I am very happy. Love the quick release feature, rather than having to unscrew it every time. Definitely a quality made tool that I will be keeping in my car so I can easily pop the hood, but also will find a million other uses for.

These are a bit more costly than many locking needle nose locking pliers but surely a quality tool. Needle nose locking pliers are one of my favorite hand tools, as they accomplish many tasks that other tools cannot achieve.

Klein is the best quality. They do the job. Small but grip like a monkey.

After going thru pair after pair of the cheesy Chinese pliers I finally ponied up a few extra bucks and got the Kline tools. They are well built and the jaws are easily adjusted. Worth the money.
