Man, first off it’s hard to believe that it’s been two years since I posted this. Second off, I STILL carry the XS with me every day for work because they are that handy. However I would recommend finding a good leather caddy for them and a light, or they have new belt clips for them made out of kydex on Etsy. A co worker was shocked to hear how much they cost but in the last two years they have paid for themselves countless times over. TLDR; they are that good still, I carry them regularly and use them regularly.
Excellent explanation of using the Knipex mini pliers. I’ve watched many videos about them and you seem to have the most experience using them in a variety of situations. I appreciate the comparisons and the real world use applications. Your knowledge really flowed easily in your conversation about them.
Thank you for the thoughtful words! I’m a geek about it at work so I’m kind of always eager to use them or show them off in an work setting. It’s real easy to throw them into the pocket and forget about it until a moment arises where you need them.
@@highwindsedc I carry a Leatherman super tool 300 with me everyday and use it quite a bit. The knipex depends on where I'm working at my job I do a bit of everything so lately not alot since I've been doing alot of finishing and painting. But the come in handy around the house too

Love your enthusiasm for Knipex Cobra’s, anyone who owns a set will know why, they are really that good, they punch way above their size and weight.
For sure pound for pound the best pair of pliers
I always carry the 7 inch ones I love them Knipex does make the best pliers.
Чувак, отличное видео с подробным объяснением ситуаций по применению инструмента и сравнение мельчайших особенностей! 👍
Thank you so much bro! I love them and they are on me everyday
Great review, just ordered the 5" pliers and maybe will consider the XS. Knipex are great tools, thanks :)
I carry the 5" in a tool kit in my edc bag. They are awesome definitely a great pair of pliers. Great video 👍
Thanks man! How often do you find yourself using them? Do you carry any other pliers/multi tools?

@@jeremyspaulding7735 awesome man! It’s very seldom I actually have to use them. But I’m glad I have them.
These things are really cool, they disappear into a 5th pocket on you jeans.. The Knipex Twin Grip pliers are awesome too.
I carry both these and a Klein electricians knife in my trade and on the farm great products
I love them both, they have my endorsement for using them on landscape irrigation and using them on our machines at work.
I like knipex 100,because easy edc
Do you think the XS could fit in the credit card slot of the Tale of knives bandit?
It’s possible!
Very coo!
