        There's also just a satisfactory feeling of having really good quality tools hand tools that will last you two lifetimes, knowing that I can pass them onto my son. Also, there's nothing worse than a cheap screwdriver threading a screw or a hammer falling apart when you're trying to do round the house jobs.

      VDE one is $99, Opinions if its worth the extra?

      • xmail on 20/03/2023 - 09:17

        If you're cutting live 1000v wires, I'd recommend the VDE.

        • sobriety22 on 20/03/2023 - 10:06
          +19

          I highly recommend you don't cut any live voltage wires. The VDE are there as protection, not for intended use. Turn off the breaker if you are going to be cutting any wires.

          • R4 on 20/03/2023 - 10:56
            +11

            @sobriety22: Yep. I'm an electrical person (electrician and engineer) and reckon VDE is kind of nonsense. You shouldn't be working on any wiring that has been tested to be dead and locked out to ensure it stays that way. If you can't 100% guarantee that it's not live, you shouldn't be working on it. End of. We used to sometimes work live but that was stupid and it's no longer an option - and rightly so.

            Test
            Lock out
            Test again
            Work

        • maverickjohn on 20/03/2023 - 11:26

          Lol its not at all for the live wire cutting. it's more to do with safety in general or are the standard ones actually really safe to begin with.
          I don't want to have a regretful purchase and something go wrong because i cheapened on a product.

    • Lykos on 20/03/2023 - 17:31

        Unless I'm missing something (or the price has been jacked) your link leads to a $58 item that is $13 more and NOT on special???

        • snuke on 21/03/2023 - 07:21

          You are missing something. I suspect you're comparing my link $58 "Knipex 71 32 200 Comfort Grip High Leverage CoBolt Cutter with Notch and Spring" to $45.80 Knipex 8701300B Cobra Uncarded Plier, 300 mm Length" instead of "Knipex 71 01 200 SB Cobolt Compact Bolt Cutters Black Atramentized Plastic Coated, 200 mm (Blister Packed)" which has now gone up to $64.

          I was comparing apples to apples, two variations of Mini Bolt Cutters.

        The cobras are currently cheaper than the needle nose, making the needle nose kit the better deal.

      Can never have too many mint condition Cobra's, even though the comfort grip sets are my favourite, these prices are too good to ignore…

      I use my 180mm's most, but foranyone who needs a bigger set, the 250mm set of comfort grips at $42 is a bargain - www.amazon.com.au/Knipex-87-250-atramentized-multi-component…

          I love the concept of the slimline cobra, but find myself using them less than all others.

          It may just be mine, but i just find that the teeth don't line up and secure their grip as securely as my other German-precision cobras…

  • ihbh on 20/03/2023 - 15:39

    For most people would the Cobra set be more useful than the long nose? E.g. simple plumbing stuff like installing a dishwasher needs wide mouth tools, which standard wrenches usually don't accommodate (I don't want to buy an extra plumbing wrench if I can get just this set)?

    • UncleRico on 20/03/2023 - 16:58
      +1

      Probably.

      Use case varies by user, but I get plenty of usage out of needle nose pliers, so would have preferred going without another pair of side-cutter plyers in place of the Cobra, but couldn't.

      Either way, the cobra is undoubtedly the more costly/valuable tool, so I'd be grabbing it over the needle-nose plyers.

      But be quick - there's only one of them left at https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B005KH87IA?psc=1&smid=A3P6X2GIM…

          Replacing cotter pins, accessing tight fit nuts and bolts, reworking wire and once - retrieving an errant earbud eartip after falling asleep with them in, waking up agitated due to the feeling of something burrowing into my brain and attempting to clear it out using a cotton tip, which only ended up entrenching the eartip deep within my earhole.

          Was very proud of my efforts to combine a mirror, iphone and one set of needle-nose plyers to retrieve the eartip from what felt like a buried position five inches my brain…

      29x 1-star reviews making less than 1% of 2277 reviews resulting in an overall 88% 5-star rating. I think the majority wins.
      If it is any consolation, I bought this late last year and it is real. If a fake one (or one that slips through QC) comes through, it is fulfilled by Amazon DE, so you can get a free return with Prime.

        I understand the numbers. The corner cases are of high interest to me because they are in German. I don't know much about tools but I know a bit about brand and possible placebo effect. High quality fakes are still fakes.

        Does your set close completely or are there gaps? It costs a bit of time and effort to return stuff. I like to waste mine posting here instead of tripping to post office :D

    • ihbh on 20/03/2023 - 22:13
      +8

      Definitely not. I thought long and hard. i bought the other set for $76 with the Cobra instead of the long nose. After Amazon GC it's low $20s per item:

      • When I changed carpets in a couple of rooms a few years ago and removed the old staples, the plastic grip came off my cheap general purpose pliers and it's rusted. So I need another one.
      • When I installed a dishwasher recently, I couldn't budge the 20sth old Asko inlet valve nut and it was too wide for my cheap wrench. A wide mouth plumbers wrench is low $10s to $20s at Bunnings, etc. I managed to borrow one, but I had to pause the installation for a few days. With its big adjustable width, there are many more uses for the Cobra; which I will think of in the next couple of days/months now I know of its existence.
      • The snips will come in handy cutting chicken wire, etc., which I've done to cover garden bed covers to keep rats out. I used what I had at hand last time - a cheap Fiskar garden tool, where the blade nut eventually broke. Will also let the kids use it to cut plastic/metal for craft.
      • If I need a long nose pair of pliers later on, I'll get an intermediate one from Bunnings,.Interestingly Bunnings sell NWS, the other German made pliers for a similar price for the 3 pack, but reviews are poor for the grip.

      That's how I've justified it to myself anyway.

    For any latecomers trying to place an order, the Amazon AU product page that's linked in the deal post is now showing the price as $148.00 (25% off) but if you click on the "New from $73.30" link on the left-hand side of the page (under the Add to Wish List button) you can still add the product to your cart from the Amazon Germany store for the discounted price of $73.30 with free shipping and then complete the checkout process.

      Thanks A LOT for that advice, thought I'd missed out - my "wish list" was on the right directly under the add to cart/buy now frame with the $148 and under that again was mention of $73.30 prime link…delivery not till late April though if that matters
