Have had the knife as my 'daily driver' for about 6months now. It's great, the proper pen knife blade is there and can be sharpened on the rare occasions you need it, and the stanley-style blade covers the other 95% of use! They only thing is, the mechanism tends to fill up with 'schmoo' and I've struggled to clean it as it's not easy to disassemble. As for the 'pride' Wera Hex keys....they are the best. I get a stupid grin every time I use them. I know, I need to get out more.... Disclaimer: Am not a spark but a DIYer, although I do very rarely get on the tools at work in an engineering company.
Knipex also make a dismantling knife specifically for armoured cable the 98 55 been using one for years great tool for all sizes of cable. Works well when you come across those random hard to strip cheap cables with awful stuck together insulation.
Been spending a ton on kleins, engineer, weha, knipex. I have an awesome toolbag. I'm not even in the trades just like collecting and doin some DIY. I can tell you soent a fortune on these. Great collection bro!
Yeah it is but I found mine fell apart rather quickly sadly! Granted I did happen to use it a lot to notch out some noggins for boxes. Also mine felt like it was all about loose after being bashed around a bit but still a pod idea. Maybe mine was a one off, would have given it another go and got a replacement but got given a set of chisels when a mate cleared out his garage so didn’t bother. Hope you’re fairs better than mine.
I really liked your new tools. I hope they help you to make your work better and more efficient. And I always watch related videos, one never stops learning. Good luck and greetings from another electrician.
about wera and knipex nothing to say ... they are not joking . I have almost all of the kits from Wera ! and I have de long bend nose pliers but 1000 V protected .. all the best mate !
How do you say knife, well knipex is the same both German in origin. As for the bent longnose pliers, I have a set of 3 longnose 1 at a right angle 1 with an offset and finaly a straight pair. They were purchased from Machine Mart, known as my "dentist" pliers very handy as many a Spark can testify because they have used them.
Some nice new tools you have man Butt you realy should have gotten the knipex 98 55 model it is the one with the litte hook on the end if you can call it that makes stripping tuff cable a breez.
It's a shame that Wera don't supply the stainless metric hex keys in a pouch like they do with the AF set. The plastic holder is OK, but I really like the pouch that the AF set are supplied with.
How are the trousers holding up comfort wise? My scruffs are doing my head in! Hot weather plus spending all day squating has the trousers pinching my knees...
Chris, bought the knipex, Allan keys and the wera 10.13 spanner based on yr video. Hope u got a few pennies from Amazon. NOTE, I Have been a prime member for many years and the moment Amazon figures that out I think it auto switches to my own account. We're that so... U might not have gotten one cent! Just so you are aware. Albert.
Hi, when you get a chance you should take a look at the Draper expert ergo plus VDE pliers, the pliers are made in Germany for Draper by orbis will which is part of the knipex group, they are stamped made in Germany on them, they are sold on eBay and Amazon, they are very reasonably priced for the money, if you check out orbis evoline pliers on UA-cam they are the exact same pliers......
Wera tools and knipex cutters are top drawer, I use them and recommend them highly. You get what you pay for with tools. I was looking at the wera Allen key set to replace my old ones too, as well as the vde knipex knife. I use scruffs work trousers though, lol.. Spacious and not claustrophobic in lofts etc. Stanley chisel looked a bit meh.. Looks like it would break after a few good whacks 😁 Great vid.

I've got the wera hex keys and they are great 👌🏼 I think the ball shaped end is so you can use it on an angle which is great for tight spots 👌🏼
Yeah that’s the one! I’m loving them

Thanks for your comments! I’m loving the Wera Hex keys too! So much stronger than a normal set and with the length you get really good leverage.

Nice video. The mini roughneck mini utility bar 7” are really good to have in you kit especially for skirting.
Yeah love them! So handy for taking floorboards up! Thanks for watching
That Stanley chisel is rather clever.

Top quality tools are always worth it in the long run. Thanks for the video.
Yeah I totally agree!

Man likes his folding tools. And a bonus modelling show!
😂
I give up - these reviews are costing me more each time I watch! Chisel and knife delivered this morning!
Ha ha brilliant!
Another really good video, A full tool bag and mft review would be great and a fully loaded van tour

So far so good! I’m loving the snickers! Such a great fit!
Wera do a stubby screwdriver that you can change the bits on. I've found it more practical than the fixed stubby you've purchased. Check it out.
CK do a set of 4 vde stubby scredrivers with slim shafts,
Someone’s tax returns come in👍🏻 had the wera Allan keys for a few weeks awesome also the knipex knife be carefull at first there super sharp👌🏻
Great video,Whats the best wire strippers out there at the moment.??

I think Knipex beat CK on quality every time but obviously CK are much cheaper.
Thank you for your videos really helpful
