this is a criminally underrated channel, best, most informational tool comparison video ive seen maybe ever. subbed
Wordy at times before the actual work comparisons, but you really showed what we needed to know and gave insightful impressions on the tools. Very good job.
I use the 61 01 200 high leverage end cutters for rural fencing - as this one tool easily cuts 2.5 mm high tensile fence wire and then will twist and cut 2.5 mm tie wire. Best tool I have had for cutting and twisting in 60 years of farming. Handle opening I hadn’t noticed - and I do use them one handed. I own three different small bolt cutters from Knipex and both end pinches you demonstrated but the high leverage 61 01 200 cutters are my choice for rural fencing.
Thank you for this great presentation. I am trying to assemble a first aid kit for a fishing boat. The intent is to have a cutting tool to snip either side of a 7/0 hook when they embed in the hands of inexperienced fishermen. Some of the upper end hooks are made of tuff steel. Thank you.
I think I need all three
Thanks for taking the time to make the review.Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for stopping by!
can you do a comparison of the bolt end cutters and the knipex bolt cutters angled (71-22-200) or the regular bolt cutter please and thank you
You do good videos. Informative with real world applications.
Hey! . Great video. I'd say for pulling nails out, the Carpenters nippers ( pincers, cutters) Have an edge over the End cutters . The bolt cutters are the best for cutting .
The it seems the End cutters are middle of the road between the other two. Oh well , to each his own...
Really appreciate your channel and very helpful stuff all the way around. Just wanted to to thank you for the effort on the videos and the help it gives me in choosing tools. Mahalos brah🤙🤙
I really liked this comparison. I'd also be really interested in a show-down between the series 68 "regular" end nippers and the series 67 high leverage end nippers. In addition to a higher pivot and greater leverage, the Knipex catalog says that the high leverage end nippers have significantly harder knives than the regular end nippers (64 RC vs. 61 RC). I'd be really interested to see how those two differences affect both cutting ability and relative ease of cutting, and *very* interested to see whether the harder series 67 high leverage end nippers can cut harder fasteners (like sheet rock screws) with less edge damage.
67 high leverage end nippers cut a little more easily when you are cutting single nail than 68, but 1st, high leverage also means you have to seperate the handles a little wider than 68 in order to have the same width of jaw. 2nd, you can not stretch the jaw as wide as 68. These 2 demerits make 67 not so handy when dealing with a lot of repetitive cutting or pulling operation. I will recommand 61 offset version because even if it also have the 2 demerits I mentioned above but it can cut and pull much more easily than 67 and 68.
I like the off set version best!!!
There’s another one that you didn’t test. 67 01 200. It looks like the regular ones, sort of, but they are high leverage.
That’s a great suggestion!
@@ParklanCustom 67 vs 68 series would be a great comparison. The two major differences are that the 67 series is higher leverage and the 67 series has knives that are 64 RC compared to 61 RC for the Series 68 nippers. I would be truly interested in a comparison of how easily the cut, compared to each other, and also whether you would see edge damage cutting hard fasteners like sheet rock screws or deck screws. If you'll pardon me, I'll post that as a separate comment at the top in case other people have any comments or suggestions on that. 👍
Good work on the comparison! How do the bolt end cutters compare to the twinforce and cobolt for cutting? Would be interesting to compare it to those two for the use of cutting.
I’d have to really test them side by side, that’s a great video idea. Just going based off using them, the twinforce and cobolts tend to slide on larger stock when attempting to cut, I didn’t notice that with the bolt end cutters.
I have both the bolt end cutters and the Cobolt. Actually I have two of the Cobolt cutters, one with the recess in the blades for thick materials. I didn't get the twinforce,, it is limited in opening and cutting capacity. In most cases the bolt end cutter is easier to use, the material will not slide out because the cutting edges are parallel to each other even in the max open position. With harder materials the Cobolt is a better option, the geometry of the edges are more robust. But in most cases the end cutter will do it. The carpenter ones are specifically made for pulling nails and not cutting them.
Wowwwww.. thank you for that. Awesome dude. Super awesome
I like the offset nippers best.
I'm looking to buy a tool for cutting the excess guitar strings after a restring. I came to your site and just dig the reviews! Keep up the good posts! I also subscribed to your channel
Honestly these are over kill for your needs than, knipex are good for rebar wire so if you got them for your purposes, one set would out last you 😅
Nice review
I dont know the proper nodel name but the ones at 3:40 are killer for rebar. They take more skill than something like 9" klein rodman pliers as the whole grabbing surface is all cutter so you need to be much more delicate. Seriously knipex blades are no joke, i actually keep both 300 mm knipex as well as a dull pair of 200 mm (same style but harden brand) just for tying single wire quickly as it can be difficult to not have the knipex cut the wire too early leaving not enough of a knot to conpare to the actual tensile strength of the wire.
And the carpenters ones have the bigger head like that for pulling nails n shit, though ive jever seen one carpenter actually use these. They just get nice stilleto hammer that havw the side puller for nails 🤷🏼♂️
For most intents and purposes, the basic end cutters are fantastic. But be aware they are sharp asf if you want to use them for grabbing it does take skill
your the man, subbed
All info . Good video thanks
No problem 👍
The straight handles with big opening i think i have seen them in horse shoe nail removal and cutting the hoofs nails so to speak
I think what your talking about is Farrier’s pliers, they are slightly different
Yeah, the bolt cutting end nippers are not for pulling nails they’re for cutting. Pulling nails will ruin the blades.
I use them for pulling nails all the time, how would pulling nails be worse for the blades than cutting nails 😂
It's almost like the three different tools have different purposes 🤔
Please, does the new Knipex model in th middle, cut nails/screws, easier than the Knipex Cobolt 200 cutters? Have you tried then side by side?
The do really good at cutting screws, nails and hard wire. They are just as good as the cobolts at cutting, possibly better!
I was worried that you were going to cut off the nail instead of removing it with the bolt cutters :)
The 16 penny nail test was funny in retrospect. Failing a tool that couldn’t cut the nail? Naw, that’s like failing a pair of pliers for not cutting something. The edges are sharp to grip, not cut! It’s just confusing because they’re sharp enough to look like they could cut something :)
I was worried I was going to cut it to with the bolts cutters bc they cut so easily. I didn’t necessarily fail the tool for not cutter the nail, just showing viewers what the tool is capable of in comparison to the others.
The carpenter pliers are made specifically for pulling nails, and the leverage is calculated to not cut the nail. The bolt end cutter will do it but you have to be careful. I have all the tools introduced in this video. It is easier to use the right one for the job.
@@fuloplehelyeah good info there. Knipex makes serious blades on their cutting pliers. You don't want them to be sharper than needed. The only use these would have over using a hammers claw or side puller or even a pry bar would be to grab nails that are like flush. If you accidentally cut the head off than that nail ain't coming out 😅
As you said, use the right tool for the job
so which one is the best overall?
That’s up to you my friend!
When cutting next time use the edge of the pliers 😊
Nippers are meant to bite down and bend as you squeeze to give the leverage needed to cut through bigger viagra nails. That’s why the ends are rounded so you can rock to cut or pull.
Viagra nails?
@@ParklanCustom lmao autocorrect changed it from variety
@@handstwister I thought maybe it was some new nail that’s is much harder 🤷♂️🤣
@@ParklanCustom 😂😂😂 sounds like we need a prototype and a patent
The carpenters nippers you mean. Saying knippers is in general colloquially used for the basic end cutters
When your doing the tie wire test, you liking the straight handle ones is why we use 12" knips for rebar.
Theyre super thin and straight.
And youre ranking for whast best at tieing kinda made me laugh ngl.
Those bolt cutter ones would be terrible for actually tieing wire all day. Youd get sick of the handle and offset pretty dang quick. Plus theres a bunch of techniques for the end cutters specifically.
Not to shit on your opinion but as someone who uses these pliers every day to tie steel for a living, the basic end cutters are absolutely the best of these 3 for tieing wire..theyre the only one of the 3 thats actually even for tieing. The way the head is shapes is specific for knuckling your knots. Like every angle on those pliers is designed for maximum ergonomics and efficiency for tieing wire.
And do not buy the carpenters ones for tieing as theyre not for cutting. Id imagine thats whybtheyre cheaoer as well, the blade is likely not as hard as theyr not for cutting. Using rhem for tie wire would destroy the blade
Knipex 62 02 200 they are not for pulling out nails, they are designed for cutting bolt's that's why they're called bolt cutters.
Would have been good to test what surface damage each nipper does when extracting nails. But good video bro
Great suggestion!
