Lineman's Pliers, Combination Pliers with Wire Stripper/Crimper/Cutter Function, Heavy Duty Side Cutting High-Leverage Plier, 8-1/2 inch (HX-1-002), Red

Great tool - it has wire stripper and crimper built in - very well built -

I had an older console piano that no one played anymore, it was in average condition when we got it used 20 years ago, and didn't improve with age. We tried to sell it, donate it, give it away - no one wants old pianos because they are too difficult to move.I was at my wits end because it took up so much space. So I decided if I couldn't get rid of it whole, it was going out in pieces. So I began the process of disassembling the piano with the intent of reusing the wood for different projects and making crafts with the keys, hammers, etc. and taking the soundboard to the scrap yard for cash.It took several hours to loosen each of the strings with a piano tuner which is REQUIRED because trying to cut tightened piano strings could be deadly. After I diligently loosened each one, I knew that I needed a good wire clipper to finish up. I have weak hands and a weak grip so I wanted something sturdy but not too heavy.This is perfect! It snipped even the thickest strings with ease and didn't cause me to get blisters. I'm looking forward to all of the other projects I'll be able to use this on.I don't understand the negative reviews because the tool I received is made of sturdy metal and the grips are thick & good quality. It comes pre-oiled (one commenter apparently thought that meant it was "used" and dirty) which is really nice because it's ready to use right out of the package.I cut through 230 piano wires, from 0 to 24 gauge and it's still strong and sharp. Great value.

It's a bit bulky to handle but it's very sturdy. It's a good value for your money.

Excellent and high quality multi tool with a cutter. Love it!

✅ Great Quality & Price ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I honestly thought this wouldn't be that great of a tool but so far compared side by side with Milwaukee and Kline this isn't a bad tool at all. I've been using it daily for 6 months.. and I honestly got it as just a "throw away" tool because 25% of the work I do is on docks/water and things fall in occasionally.. it turns out it's actually a pretty good tool. I'll update my review if I have any problems with it but so far it twist, strips, and cuts wire good.. even works as a decent hammer.. if it does end up falling in one of the waterways I'll definitely buy it again for the price.

Solid and sharp good grip on pliar's handles and tool grabing jaws plus orang color handle grips are easy to spot out and locate in original vision to access out of the tool box ,bag or just laying with other tools.Good product for the price!

I love these side cutters. Hands down the best for a low voltage tech by far. Comfortable and stripping and crimping is awesome.
