What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
This is all about the crimping and the beautiful ratchet action on this tool works every time. Crimps the connectors firmly. It's great when you accidentally slip or need to adjust your grip, and ensures you crimp correctly.
Worth paying the bit extra for over the cheapest ones. Highly recommend spending the little extra and getting something worth every penny.
Cons
The “wire cutter’ doesn’t cut, the spare blade falls out of its holder and there are no wire tools. The blade does not cut the wire when it has been punched in. You need excessive force to punch down.

Decent quality buy this and forget about those plastic abominations unless you only have one socket to do

Not just a clone but actually pressed in the same factory this is one of the only tools which knipex outsource as theres just no sense in making them themselves

If knipex like them enough to put their name on them you know its a winner but save yourself the money and get these
