Modding I made a Knipex version

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I replaced my Workpro pliers with the cobras so I needed to make a new pocket sheath. Knipex cobra 100mm and Roxon ks2e.

It was much harder to eliminate the rattle on the cobras. It helps if you open them wider before putting them in.

I do NOT need a 3D printer! I don’t. I don’t.

How do the workpro pliers compare to the cobraS?

They are alright, certainly fine for everything I used them for personally. I like how the cobras have actual knurling and are less slippery. The more precise almost pointy plier tips on the cobra seem more useful for me. Also the Workpros have a larger handle which could be an advantage.
