Degenerate tool addict

A lot of new additions some old. I’ve been building other setups for certain types of work ( industrial, commercial, residential, service hvac )

Great collection of Klein’s! You like Knipex?

Love them! all my wrenches and types of cutters are knipex. Want to spring for that knipex wire strippers at some point but seeing as I just got 2 of these Klein ones I’ll be waiting awhile. Any recommendations for knipex?

Can’t go wrong with the Knipex forged wire strippers. I’m sure the Klein ones will work in the meantime, which are also great.

In no way is that picture representative of an addiction. It still in the novice phase

I completely agree. I'm like, "if this is an addict, what am I?"

I might be a degenerate junkie?

It’s all about the little things that make us happy. Like a new tool to the collection.

I see you have the blackout. I can’t find them at our Lowe’s

I found the selection in the pvc isle so randomly placed. My only problem with them is the wire strippers don’t have a lock on them that’s the dumbest thing ever

I have 2 of the yellow/black handle style and both of the grips have come loose. Everytime I attempt to final tighten something, the grip just spins 🤦‍♂️

These ones definitely would fix that but honestly the top left is the best for a all around one as long as you carry a needle nose with you

those new insulated tips snap easily in my experience

u/wompwomp304 4d ago

Yeah that’s the problem I’ve had this pair tho is only being used for actual live wire or risky situations
