This is the black edition, no prime free shipping, the one from pegasusx is chrome finish.
Pliers Wrench patent from Knipex is expired, other German brands are making clones, I.e. wiha (only 2 left, be hurry if you want. And 2 for $46, now $106, a lot cheaper but made in Vietnam, review not as good as Knipex, adjust mechanism, detailing and jaw depth. But it is German brand, definitely better than Bunnings home brands, worth considering if don’t want to spend too much)

  • How do you search for these items available from UK?

  • Thanks for the post. Been wanting a pair of knipex plier wrenches for ages, a chrome one actually, but these are at a great price. Besides im just a keen diy mechanic so these will do beautifully.

    • You are welcome, cobra is good price too. Too cheap to pass.
      Normal price is 40+.

      • I was tempted, as they are a good price especially with postage as you say but I am on a bit of budget. I'm glad at least I held off from the other earlier post. Thanks again on posting the selecting/deselecting the pull down menu trick. Haven't seen or done that before.

  • whats the difference between this one and the one (86 03 180) posted in the other thread?

    • +1

      This is actually cheaper.
      Also it's black where that one is chrome.

    • +3

      This one is a newer version that uses less metal in its design, so it has slightly narrower jaws. Non-chrome needs more care (more liable to rust) only if you store it badly. So basically it's cheaper for them produce and so cheaper to buy.

      • Black is only available in new edition I think.
        In terms of longevity, chrome is bit more easier to get chipped and cannot repair, but no need oiling.

    I'm a mechanic and I have had a set of these for a few years. Got sick of losing knipex ones. They are pretty much on par.

    • +1

      This is a nice set.
      It will be good see if NWS can make pliers wrench.

    • +2

      On par with the cobra maybe but not the wrench pliers.

      • Oops didn't even notice the difference. I haven't seen these before. Are they as functional as a normal shifter?

        • +1

          *The Cobra pliers can grip fasteners, but also cylindrical and non-uniform shapes. It is a general tool and made by many manufactures. But Cobra gets more attention when shoppers search Pliers Wrench.
          *The Pliers Wrench is going to be the better choice for use on fasteners that will show or be reused, as they won't dig into or mar the surface. This is patent design from Knipex.

        • +2

          Definitely more functional than a shifter.

          Shifters are terrible - they're not a good substitute for spanners because they have a tendency to loosen and round off nuts. They're good if you don't/can't carry around a spanner set and that's about it.

          The knipex pliers wrench have a mechanism that allows the jaws to apply a lateral force to your work piece - so they don't loosen like a shifter but still have the same benefit of being adjustable.

    Oh, hang on: how's this? Three pairs of Knipex pliers delivered for $110: 7, 10 and 12 inch, free delivery

      Alligator Pliers vs Pliers Wrench

      • What's the difference?

        • The jaws where you attach it is different. OP has flat jaws, these are angled and corrugated.

    • Outstanding. Ordered one pack.

      Will be perfect for my Three Bears cottage.

      • Completely different tools… The three pack are not plier wrenches - they're not a spanner/shifter substiture, what OP posted is

    • Bought those today. Good deal!

  • sorry about the cumbersome link.

    • +1

      No worries, it is nice if you want pliers.
      But the gold here is the Pliers Wrench:)

  • Think amazon removed the seller. I saw the option for a lower price from other sellers, but after clicking that link only Amazon US seller appears

    • Scroll down until you see "Frequently bought together". Deselect the other ones and add to cart. Price should reflect $54.43 for the Knipex 86 01 180 and show Shipped from and sold by Amazon UK

      • Also do it from a web browser and not an Amazon app on a mobile device.

        • Mobile browser as well

      • Yep. $66.45 shipped.

        • +1

          Choose longer shipping and save yourself few more dollars.

      • Cheers! Managed to do it for the 7" but not the 10" version.

  • Cobra 10in is no longer $38.

    • Thanks Updated

  • +1

    Cheers OP, I'm in the process of turning a bus into a motor home and these will come in handy I'm sure.

    • +1

      WOW. Tiny house movement?

  • Thanks, great find

  • Yes OP I agree great find …

  • What's the difference to something like this?

    https://www.bunnings.com.au/nws-250mm-tongue-and-groove-stra…

  • How did you select 10" 250mm Pliers wrench? Frequently bought together drop down only shows US import price.

    • Just checked, still available $68.19 a few cents cheaper
      Check the description how to add it to cart.

      • Sorry I followed the instructions. Seems to work for 7" but not the 10". Price for 10" still stays at $85.61 in the "frequently bought together" group.

        These were the instructions:
        you can select the combo dropdown and add to cart. Scroll down until you see "Frequently bought together". Deselect the other ones and add to cart.

        Not entirely sure what "combo dropdown" is.

        • +2

          Ok. If I did it when NOT logged in, I got the $au68.19 price from the UK and then logged in to proceed with the purchase.

          When I was logged in first and followed the instructions I only got the $au85.61 US store price.

          • @seb: Interesting, I would expect Amazom to be too big for these kind of silly bugs.

          • @seb: However, even with PRIME, cheapest delivery from UK was $11.73, bringing total to $79.92

          • @seb: Thanks, this trick works great. Now the waiting game begin.

  • The 7 inch comfort grip version in chrome finish is a good price too, the extra cost is justifiable over these ones imo (if you're a prime member).

    https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B000X4PTZ4

    • $0.16c cheaper for the 10 inch. Better choice than the 7 inch?

      • Both have its own use, 7 for narrow space, 10 for leverage
        Jaw opening a bit different as well
        All depends on your needs, 10 is more versatile if you want only one

  • Thanks. Bought 10 inch for $79.92 including shipping.

  • Bought one, a great bargain! Thanks!

  • Bought 2
    Can't stop this slipping
    If I am murdered you will be resposible.
    Thanks OP

  • Starting to freak out as i ordered last night from the other deal, but got the 7.25" comfort black, but just saw i got the 02 "new" version. then wanted to cancel and buy this to save $20! I dunno if i can be bothered now.
    ughhh

    • Both are new version
      And cashrewards has $5 for $50 order
      So 20+5 :)

      • version i bought has 02 in the model number
        the one linked here is 01

        Knipex 86 01 180
        vs
        KNIPEX 86 02 180

        hang on, probably comfort grip vs not, yep

        • Yup there are other versions, black is the cheapest, chrome and comfort grid followed

    • Yeah I just tired cancelling my 10" order from last night, but was unable (too close to shipping out). Lost $12 but at least now I know this "frequently bought together" trick for next time.

      • Some amazon uk listing are added recently but cannot be selected directly, so it might be temporary bug.

  • I'm trying to replace the washer on a very stubborn garden tap, would this be better than a pipe wrench for the job?

    • No

      • +1

        depends on what type of fitting the tap is. a traditional pipe wrench has corrugated teeth on it to grab. it works on a similar principal but this type of wrench grips/squeezes more stronger than a pipe wrench would as it requires a pulling force to keep the grip on it strong enough to turn.

        this video was linked in the other deal, explains it probably better than I can, but it does not do a direct comparison to a pipe wrench. Have a watch and see if it will help with your problem.

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUl62Ib8p0s

    • +1

      Change the whole tap. This wrench is too expensive for just for the 1 job.

      Anyway, if you want to go down the wrench route you will need two of the. 1 cobra knipex (Channel lock) to hold down the body of the tap. Then you need a wrench to undo the nut (the bigger the wrench the more leverage you 'll have)

    • Not the same tool - it looks similar but they do not have the same purpose or function.

      And no where near the same quality. Craftright is good if you need a cheap tool for a small home DIY project - complete rubbish if you actually need to use the tools for work or on a regular basis.

      • -1

        I use it to get work done on a regular basis and it always works as intended.

    • Pliers wrench 10” 250mm(amazon.com.au)($68.51) is showing at $86.15 for me.

    Is the cheaper price expired or is it a PEBKAC issue?

    • +1

      I am seeing the same $86.15 price.

      • +2

        Update - I followed the above advice on logging out of amazon and then trying to add to cart before logging in and this worked to get the $68 pricing. So still working at this price.

        • cheers :)

  • Price has dropped to $37.04 + Delivery on the Cobra 10” 250mm UK listing

  • I just noticed my Knipex orders have not shipped yet. Has anyone had theirs shipped ?

    • +1

      Mine have shipped, albeit a (logistics?) delay of up to a week before shipping is not uncommon with the international Amazon sites, especially since they announced prioritisation of essential product deliveries during the Covids…

      • +1

        Thanks for the update , good to hear yours have shipped.

    • +1

      Mine haven't shipped either. Will keep you posted as to when/ if they ship

      • Thanks

      • +1

        Looked at my Knipex Orders on Amazon today and it advises "Preparing for Shipment" which is great news.

        • +1

          Received notification order shipped via DHL from Spain of all places.

          • @chrisie: No progress yet with mine, but this gives me hope :)

            • @UseMyLink: DHL tracking reports Estimated Delivery: Friday, July 24, 2020 although my second order still says Preparing for Shipment.
              Waiting is such a pain .
              Cheers

              • @chrisie: Bit of a suprise my 1st order arrived today, mean while still awaiting for my 2nd order to ship.

    • Mine are still 'preparing for shipment' for the 7 inch cobra pliers + 180mm wrench. Anyone else?

      • +1

        Your not alone - my order for the 10' Cobra Pliers is still showing 'preparing for shipment' as well.
        Received the order for the 7" Knipex Pliers Wrench.

      • +1

        Just contacted Amazon re my order for the 10' Cobra Pliers which is still showing 'preparing for shipment' below is the response I received.

        Suggest that you contact Amazon.au. ( I got them to ring me ) also ask for something to ease the pain :)

        • +1

          Thanks for the tip. I used live chat they said my orders in the final stage of shipment. Tried to press them for a promo but they didnt offer as its 'shipping very soon'
