Compact Precision Compact Long Nose Pliers (Needle tip),Professional Grade, ESD Safe with Carbon Steel Jaws. Made in Japan. ENGINEER ps-03

When the Japanese set out to make something, quality really does seem to be the priority. They build up to a standard rather than down to a price. I'm an engineer/machinist and a huge tool nerd and a can honestly say these are nothing short of beautiful! The fit and finish is flawless! Perfect for model makers, the round cross section makes them great for forming small bends and coils in wire. The blocky over moulded handles are surprisingly comfortable and the machining is absolutely perfect! Every single edge has been chamfered so as not to be sharp but the bevels are so incredibly fine, you almost can't see them with the naked eye! You can however feel them. Frankly, I'm at a loss as to how they make any profit at these prices!! World class stuff! I'll be going to this brand for all my small pliers. Engineer is the manufacturer responsible for Vamplier products which are equally well made. I am buying more!!!

good ,well made ,for gripping little things. Comfortable to use.

Excellent precision. My second tool from this manufacturer and it is a class above competing products. Its a joy to use, which for me is mainly with electronics for which it is perfect - it will grip delicate parts without marking. I also love the rubber handgrips. Everything about this tool exudes quality and although pricy compared to the competition, you do get what you pay for.

These are expensive compared to superficially similar offerings, but they are very nicely made - the sort of tool you'll still be using long after you've forgotten what you paid. Obviously not heavy-duty - no serrations, so not the sort of thing you need for gripping firmly, but great for delicate work such as positioning electronic components.

Good overall. The jaws are accurate and the hinge is tight enough to prevent misalignment. The only negative is the spring which can pop out of one side if the pliers are opened too far then prevent them from closing until it's seated back in place. I have some Knipex flush cutters and these are every bit the same quality in all aspects apart from that spring!

Very good quality and easy to use

Good pair of precision pliers

Im a sign Engineer. I am often asked to take down signs for safety reasons so that the underling structure can be made good before i reinstate the original signage. Removing old signage often involves removing "steel on aluminium" screws that represent a challenge. These 'engineer' screw extraction pliers have done well by me in the past. they work well. I also carry out a lot of discreet circuit work that these grips fall down on. If they had grip surfaces id be happy. They dont, so im not.

Buena herramienta de precisión para tener a mano, la uso para desmontar IC's y doblar pines.

Very useful and heavy duty tool. Highly recommended

Fantastic. Better than Knipex's version which has a garbage handle design and is slippery and has much worse grabbing power. Knipex do have a more stubby one which is good but that's over 50 or 60 bucks. That's the angled one in the second photo. And this engineer still has a much better spring. The Knipex spring doesn't push it enough and also is not removable like the engineer. Unfortunately engineer don't make an angled jaw one currently. Not that I could find. Absolutely grab one of these. Great handle. Great jaws. Great price. Note the chain is my own addition. I like it to not open too much for my uses. I have different pliers for larger things. The chain keeps it very tight and controlled. Can't even do that with the 50 dollar Knipex.

Le produit est d'une excellente facture et bien fini. Tient bien en main. Seul inconvénient est qu'il reste ouvert au repos. Il faut mettre un petit capuchon (fourni) pour le ranger fermé.

I like the finish, the grips, almost everything, I'm just not sure if those jaws shouldn't close more tightly (I'm giving them a good squeeze in the photo. Maybe I just don't understand plier design. Also, if you'd like to store them closed, it's really easy to DIY something thanks to the grip eyelets.
