I got them when they were in our shop the first time... and I love them... have them in my pocket all the time at work and used them often, especially to grab torn out screw heads on wood and metal screws 🤗 the fact that you can adjust the size makes them pretty handy... however on smooth round stock and harder pins the only better ones are the engineer pliers from Japan... got a nice set of them as well... but for regular daily use at work... KNIPEX for the win

I carry the 6" Vampliers in my pocket everyday, they cut wire and are the small version of this and weigh nothing. 6" Vampliers and Milwaukee Pocket knife with the flip out screwdriver is always on me and way better than any heavy multitool. 6" Vampliers are the Best pliers to remove stripped out screws. These Knipex would be nice in a bag or tool box if you are dealing with larger nuts and bolts. These Knipex would be the perfect farmers pliers if they cut wire. These may be the best mechanics pliers ever, that is where I think they would shine.

I have the Engineer nejisaurus 6" (exactly the same tool as the vamplier) and it's helped me out of a bind quite a few times. I really don't like the grip and handle on it though. I don't like the squared off shape it has and I hate that the rubber of the handle extends past the steel. I'm looking forward to trying the knipex when the prices drop.

@@k4yr4d I wrapped my handles with hockey stick tape, mostly so they don't slip out of the pliers pocket on the side of my pants when I'm driving but it also improved the squared off shape of the handles. The more the hockey stick tape frays, the grippier the handles get.

I purchased a pair of these a month ago and returned them. They were machined poorly, with one part of the tip being very thin. The other thing I noticed was the misalignment in the closed position. I have more than a dozen knipex pliers and really love them. Probably just got a bad pair.

I've noticed that issue with the uneven grind in many of the videos about these particular pliers. I don't think it matters too much in practice, but it's just not very nice to see in this price class. They probably wanted to get these to market as quickly as possible because of the sky high demand, let's hope future batches will be better.

Slip joint pliers are not as tight because the two handles need room to slip past each other. Even the jaws might not be perfectly align when in use the jaws grab onto the screw head or nut tight. As far as one jaw is slightly thinner than other I would agree that looks ugly but again it doesn't affect the performance of this pliers. I carry a pair of Engineer screw extraction pliers for small screws and Knipex for anything the Engineer couldn't handle.

I got the “engineer”version of the vampliers. So far I found that the knipex slipped a bit more then the engineer pliers. Though the knipex can hold a larger fastener. I love the comfort grip but they either take up too much room in my veto tp5 or don’t fit in their pockets well.

I agree on the handles, I really like how compact the slick handles are, as far as I know though the twin grip only comes in the textured version or the comfort grip and the textured version I just really don’t like the feel of for some reason as well as the clean ability of it, I kind of thought too with the weird grips these are good at that more leverage in the hand might be a good thing?

You need the style of pliers for every time you try to get that screw I don't care how big or small it might be out these are going to get it done. You might need two pairs one pair for the front side and one pair for the backside of it. I like them far better than the vampires I have. I even have two pairs of comfort grip and a regular handle. I got the comfort grip second and to have two pairs of them. Even though the vampires will come in a second pair and do the same functions for the most part.

I have always used mole grip (vice grip) pliers for awkward screw extraction. You can even get mole grip pliers with the cut out in the end like the Knipex to aid with this. Looking at them, the notch in the end of the Vamplier looks to be wider than the Knipex, pretty expensive to get a set to play with though.
