My whole world has been turned upside down
Actually, If you listen to their different hosts, the German hosts say “NIPEX” with just a hint of a tiny “k” sound at the front. The British host on the other hand, just straight up says “NIPEX,” no “k” sound whatsoever
So it’s really either way at this point lol
I had the same question until you mentioned they were german lol
your fingers are to clean to actually work on cars...
Forget the pliers, the picture quality of this video is astounding.
Haha yeah I got his fingerprints now 😈

A JIS screw is only "notorious" for rounding if you're using a Phillip's driver instead of a proper JIS driver. I have to think you know that!
And for those, you can use a flat head if the JIS is rounded. Or better still, you can get a combination driver which engages the JIS or Phillips and the Slot at the same time.
I'd also say if you had shocked the the screw with a hammer it would of came out without stripping
@@NuclearRobotHamsterno lad use the right bit for the screw
Yup, honda is notorious for using this in a few locations as well.
Although an impact screwdriver can get around that problem usually
I like to use impact screwdriver and remove only after engine is warm. Those are great pliers though.
Knipex make great pliers, PERIOD. Some of the best I've ever used and I've been turning wrenches over 25 years. Good stuff!😎👍
Knipex makes beautiful tools.
Overseas junk , buy American Made tools instead 🇺🇸
@@hectorrodriguez4384 American tools are overseas junk.
@@hectorrodriguez4384 the American type are rebranded from Germany 🤡
anything made in the land of the gay is junk
@@hectorrodriguez4384just because something is made in America or overseas does not guarantee its quality or lack there of. When it comes to ratchets and sockets. Taiwanese brands like tekton and Quinn are touted as being equal in quality to the USA brand snap-on, but at a fraction of the price. When it comes to pliers and Alan wrenches, German brands are often the better performing longer lasting brands.
Just because something is USA made doesn't mean it's better, and even if it is better doesn't mean It's worth the increased price.
Don't believe me? Look up videos done by project farm, torque test channel, and other other UA-cam channels that compare tools side by side. The American brands are not usually at the top, and if they are, at least one other brand being a third the price is usually not far behind, and that's not even taking into account whether you actually need the best or not.
Don't buy based on where the brand is made, buy based on proven quality and your actual needs
Wow, I own around 30 different knipex pliers, and I use them daily and love them so much. I also own a few vampliers that are comparable to these pliers in your video which are also very good. Knipex will have to thank you because I didn’t even know these existed but I will be buying a set. Thanks!
I got this recently. Now I’m waiting to get my hands on Pliers Wrench XS. It’s awesome.
I have both the vampires and twin grips, both are great. The adjustable width on the twin grips is amazing.
@@arthurmorgan8966I also have the XS in pliers wrench and cobras, highly recommended. Incredible workmanship on the tiny ones.
How about a showdown - Knipex (Germany) v. Vampliers (Japan)?
@@Keifsanderson - Will do.
Vamplier is good too
I love my vampliers. I thought they would be a cheap/gimmick tool. Nope. The grip is amazing the teeth are sharp and have already lasted several hard uses without any sign of wear. Metal quality, fit and finish are all top notch.
I love vampliers I got multiple ones and pretty much swear by them
Have both, love both. Buy both lol. The Knipex's wide adjustment on their twin grips is amazing.
I've never been disappointed by knipex. Maybe the most reliable company by that metric.
A list of the best German tools: Pliers: Knipex Screwdrivers: Wera Wrenches:Hazet Electric tools: Hilti but Bosch is much more affordable Woodworking saws: Festool if that's even german special shit: Fein and Proxxon and many more if somebody is interested
Hilti is from Liechtenstein. Great tools!
Use an actual JIS driver and you wouldn’t have to use pliers 😂
I wish some people would use the correct tool for the job
Did you not see all the corrosion?
@@thomasbrocklehurst7822that’s one way, but also could we just be using torx?
Start with the right driver
Knipex makes the best scissory, hinge-jointed tools on the planet.
A flathead would work just fine as well
Flat head screwdriver: am I a joke to you?
Vessel impacta JIS screwdriver. It's saved many fasteners on the older japanese bikes I work on.
I can’t believe how inexpensive they are for how freakin incredible they are.
Yes, I have the complete set and they are awesome.
I also work for Subaru, I also have/use those German pliers, and I also pronounce the K.
I just bought mine recently and they are the best pliers I ever bought. I liked them so much I bought a second pair so I can have a pair at work and one at home.
Knipex pliers are some of the best ones made on the market. In my opinion there is not a plier manufacture that makes a plier that's in there league. Hands down best griping plier on the market . I have 40 years as a auto technician buying tools my whole life. Love these pliers.
Vampliers are the only ones I can think that come remotely close. Japanese bs German manufacturing, can't really go wrong. I love both, but Knipex has been my go to for over a decade now. Vampliers are no slouch though. Both great manufacturers.
Super clear video
Knipex 💯
Good use for them. I always use an impact driver for these (the old school hammer ones). Works a treat.
Learned this working on my first vintage Japanese Motorcycle years ago. With JIS it's almost a requirement, could not get through taking apart a 40 year old Honda without one.
If that fails there's always the good old vise-grips
Extremely well-made pliers save your ass once a year are worth it
Favorite pliers in my box
I have the vampire tool 'vampliers' which are a similar design but a bit smaller. Not an everyday tool but when it's needed they are a life saver!
Nice pliers. An impact screw driver would get that screw out.
My thought exactly. If you know a certain screw tends to be hard to get out, using one in the 1st place would probably be best before you strip it.
@@MrRob1426 exactly
Better scewdriver.
True, or an impact gun. Not the air pressure impact wrenches cause those got too much torque for a small bolt like this lol.
But yk, the impact guns like the DeWalt or Milwaukee ones will work just fine since those uses a hammering force rather than a twisting force.
Not all the time bro. Sorry.
Those pliers are great!! When I worked at Subaru I used them to install the purple clips on the rear parking brake that hold the shoe pins. They bite really well and those little clips would never fly away from me! Freaken love em.
Knipex and Hazet are Germany's greatest gift to the world.
The Japanese have been making these for a while. They call them “vampliers.”
I've got both these tools. I
And I've really barely used both of them. The little snap on screwdriver is adorable tho. Goes well in the pocket with the knipex baby cobra pliers
Knipex makes amazing tools. The prices aren’t for the faint of heart but the quality is worth every penny!
Best tools I have used
I own a couple items they make all work great and better made than most.
I wish I had someone like you who lived closer to me lol. I'm doing an H6 engine swap from a Subaru SVX into my '00 Forester and although I'm pretty good at turning a wrench, I always wish I had more Subaru buddies near me. Hard being a Subaru Ambassador and no scoobie friends to hang with lol.
These pliers also seem to have a hole/indent, etc. on the axis line in the end of the pliers. Thisis great for grabbingthe spring clamp typehose clampswith justtwoends stickingout to try to grab.
They makespecial pliersfor that or you can drill a hole into the end of a pairofstandard, slip-joint it's but, these stretched out, longer looking pliers with an apparent hole in the end would be perfect.
Ya das ist gut!! Best damn tools ever!!
I use my rotor screw impact driver. Couple of taps and it comes right out. Remember this if you work on a classic car with door hinge screws.
You don't have any flat screwdrivers?
As a millwright I can confirm these pliers are life savers
Oh I very much enjoy them they are. Great tool
Kaneepex
No. Typical American butchering the English language. How he pronounces it, is correct
I like to see them used on a screw that wasn't already loosed.
Yeah same here. I can even see the grip marks when he zooms in with the screwdriver. :(
I have used them on pan head screws that were aluminum and they worked
@@fandango_buttlicks I'm not saying they don't work but that screw had already been broke loose. When he zooms in you can see where the teeth had bitten into the screw head. I like the look of them, just not a fan of deceptive claims.
I have one these and love them alot !
They strip out because 1. Corrosion 2. people using a phillips on jis. They may look the same but they seat differently. Jis are cut more square so they dont slip like the angled blades or slots cut on a phillips head
I have 5 pieces Knipex over 10 years, perfect tools. German perfection.
Gotta say I learned something today. I been pronouncing it wrong
It sounds stupid to say it like he does so I just say nipex 😅
Thanks for the help man! Also the I’m pretty sure the k is silent in knipex
It's definitely not. The K is pronounced. Knipex has a video confirming. 👍🏻
@@MrSubaru1387 good to know. Thanks dude
@@MrSubaru1387 but it sounds dumb and idc what they want me to say. lol
@@MrSubaru1387 K-nipex don't k-no what they're tocking about... 🙄😌
These pliers saved my ass removing a purge valve on my car. Same scenario as yours. Worked like magic.
They are great pliers and yes work awesome for stripped screws!
The twin grips have replaced slip joint pliers for me. I use them for pretty much everything
Bought this pair off the mac truck when it was on sale. Its my go to pair for everything. Even use it place of a hose clamp plier.
Vampliers are the original
This video just made me buy them
They are nice pliers I use them in my work. They are good with small tubing, and screws.
They do have other uses but it's a nice addition in a toolbox.
The engineer screw pliers are better but they are hard to come by in my country.
I have these pliers and they are ridiculously good. Use em everyday at the dealership. Also grab the snap on long nose, 3-way pliers…those are also bad ass.
Knipex are great.. so many unique pliers… they are the best.. I tossed my channel locks I’ve got 4 different kinds 2 of each.. I love them
People : what would you use this for?
Me : everything.
Use these as much as I can. Love em. Crazy sharp teeth
I'm a volks guys who ride mazda for 10 years and now I try to get into subaru. What I learn about your video is that I need some knipex plyer now
Also love the quality of Kinpex
I have a set of extra large Knipex pliers, they're the best ones I've ever had. Although, I just realized the K Isn't silent... Learn something new everyday.
I have a pair of these in my toolbox and I love them they're one of the best investments I ever made help take out rounded out bolts all the time without problem I have even used them on carburetors to intake bolts that are stripped out if you can get it to buy it it will take it out
that extra groove would work well with X washers. which i fully admit i have not encountered anywhere outside of brunswich A and A2 pinsetters.
Best pliers to ever live snap on wishes to be Knipex
So are we just breaking the torque on the screw by taking pliers, gripping the sides, and twisting it? Wouldn’t just a normal pit of pliers work just fine?
Knipex is the most goated brand
Sweet, now I know what to use them for. I bought them because they looked awesome and because i’ve regretted buying a knipex.
I love knipex!!!
The twin grips are one of my favorite pieces of kit it my bag!
Knipex and Vamplires just improved the design of plain old gas pipe pliers.
Nice, good tool to have. Vise grips slip off the round edge and a hammer it impact screwdriver likely crack off the casting.
I like Knipex a lot but for this tool I bout some Japan Engineer long nose pliers that do the same thing but for smaller screws and in tighter spots. There’s one Philips screw that I have to regularly deal with in a really bad spot with barely any room and those pliers make it a breeze.
One of if not my favorite pliers in my tool box
The corrosion is outstanding
use a flatheat and put tension on the screw while hitting the back with a hammer till it breaks loose. same thing with a phillips screw head but before you strip it out. then you dont ruin the screws.
Gonna buy
Those are awesome 😎
The only pair of knipex is these twin grips and they are pretty sweet. I'm an industrial assembly mechanic
Knipex r great!
I've never seen these pliers but I already knew that's exactly what I would use them for. I've tried regular pliers and they don't work that well, vice grips can work but could squeeze too hard and strip the outside of the screw as well.
Just noticed the pair I bought last week have the tip ground out of square. As well as 2 more in store. That’s a massive quality control blunder.
I love my knipex stuff. Jis drivers work well on jis screws also
Hmm I think you can use a smaller screw driver im sure that will help.
I have them every mechanic needs a pair.
Vampliers also makes great screw extraction pliers
I need a Subaru.
Vampliers/Engineer have been making that style teeth for years. Even though I have several pairs of those, I still bought the Knipex pliers. I hate slip joint pliers, but these are tight and actually work.
2개째 구매해서 사용중인데 그냥 짱~!
Dang…vampliers have competition now!
Cresent auto bite pliers are awesome, and can be worked with one hand. For $20 you can't beat them
Love the video friend ❤
The accent tripped me tf out
I got so tired of Messing with regular slip joint pliers so I went out and bought a pair of the knipex cobra waterpump pliers and my lord are they expensive for a pair of pliers but they are a beauty and are a dream to work with compared to the $10 hobo-freight specials!!!
Hobo-freight lol
love these pliers and I'm not even a mechanic. super handy
SWEET!!! I MUST GET SOME!!!
Those screws aren't Phillips head screws, but Crosspoint screws that are used on Japanese cars. You'll ruin the Crosspoint head using a Phillips screwdriver. Crosspoint screws are designed to be torqued, whereas Phillips screwdrivers were designed to cam out when torqued.
You know that screw looks eerily similar to an ecx #1 fastener head im sure it works just as fine in there as well funny since ecx is normally used in electrical
I work on aircraft and love knipexs pliers and you say it exactly how me and everyone else I know say it.
They come in handy with everything, I use mine all the time, they hold drum springs great. The best
I've been using the engineer brand version of this for a while. Totally a life saver, a lot better than visegrips.
Knipex makes fantastic pliers. I use the needle nose set to take wrist pen clips out. They have phenomenal grip
