      I did a similar test with nippers. I had Channellock and Knipex.. The channel lock had trouble cutting nails with hand pressure. The Knipex did not.. To be fair the Knipex had a different design with narrower cutters and longer handles.

      you should rename this to how to make 2 minutes of content into 18 minutes of video. Ive watched a lot of your videos lately, this is a complete disaster. the music is annoying, you repeat everything so many times, you rample so much. sigh... UA-cam doesn't know what people want. Look at youtube rewind. Stop trying to feed their algorithm. Real viewers don't want overly long videos. Sure the algorithm will get you views and low interest subscribers. The subscribers you gain playing to the algorithm will be low quality. they won't watch all your videos, they certainly won't donate to you. If youtube decides to stop recommending you, then your low quality subscribers won't share your videos or help you grow.

      But the difference is on life of the tool. If you need to make some electric wire cable cut, chinese is ok.
      If you want to have one tool that you use always and always work like on first day, or if you are a professionnal, you should consider buying pro quality tools.
      Personnaly, i have some chinese, pro, and very old tools. each of theses have an use. and if i know i could loose it, or i will use it only a few time, i choose chinese cheap type. for the others, i prefer put some bucks on them ;)

    Hey Cody! Cool video, the results are about what I expected. I actually bought a cheap set similar to the amazon ones (probably made in the same factory) just for jobs that might damage my nicer side cutters. It is sometimes handy to have those super cheap tools that maybe arent as good, but at least you aren't concerned about losing them down the back paddock or damaging them on something that you didn't expect to be high tensile.

      Channelock makes good cutters...i cut through a 1/4-20 bolt with a pair of the 8 inchers. still worked great a couple years later and i gave them to someone who didnt have a pair. got a pair with the code blue grips and thats whats in my bag. love them. the Knipex are no slouch though, they are a quality tool. i have a pair in my home bag. i just feel the channelocks cut a little bit easier on tough stuff. different cutting edge too...hammer and anvil. alignment doesnt have to be as precise for them.
      throw some Kleins in there too...however you may have to go through a few pair to find one where the cutting edges line up...

      @@KodyAWSOME And here in Europe standard is 230V (+/- 10%), and some appliances with a high demand are running with 400V if it's a three-phase system. In some countries in residentials you'll find single phase power supply only. Here in Germany three-phase power supply is common, even in residential buildings.
      That's the reason almost every electrician here uses insulated tools. And Knipex is the standard brand for them, but here they are much cheaper. The diagonal cutters shown here are round about 20 Euros here, which are 22 US$, the value added tax of 19% already included.

I couldn't believe a few things about that incident. That he could do it, and that my cutters were fine afterwards. I'm still using the same pair to this day. I was pissed as he was doing it. I thought for sure my cutters would be toast. I did recently buy the new E338 channellocks just because it was killing me to try them.

Got a pair of Klein side cuts and never looked back, abused them just as much if not more for a longer period of time. I had the knipex for about a year or so and have been running the same pair of Klein side cuts for 3-4 years and they still work great. They could be replaced for excellent performance but they perform well as is.

This stuff is extremely hard to cut. I normally used the heavy side cutter linesmen pliers, the good quality ones would cut them with a lot of elbow grease and no damage to the tool. Pick up a cheap set though and they not only wouldn't cut the antenna, but it would leave a perfect little crescent dent in the cutting surfaces. LOL
