Always used Klein and knipex for work(industrial maintenance) and need a cheap pliers on the fly but started using these as my main pliers since the spring mechanism makes them easy to use in one handed operations and they have held up surprisingly well over the year I’ve had them. Never had any issues with them use them daily for master links on rollers chains and cutting welding wire(3/32 flux and metal core) and steel wire. Blades and the grooves on the pliers have held up very well.

Excellent quality, one major flaw
I've owned this set of long-nose pliers for 4 or 5 years I think, and they replaced a set of pliers from another company that literally snapped. The DeWalt pliers are of far better quality, are much stronger, and are very, very comfortable in the hand. However, not all is perfect: this locking mechanism is not designed well at all. They may or may not open with the slightest bump, and there's no way to fix it without grinding down the silver lever a little bit. You'll see in the photo they're slightly open; they open very slowly until they pop open all the way. These were in a drawer when they opened one time, and it prevented me from opening the drawer. I had to get my daughter with her tiny hands to reach inside and move the pliers. Pretty frustrating. If they redesigned the silver locking lever to actually catch like it should, this would easily be a 5-star tool.

better than my other cutters
These Pliers cut better than my Knipex cutters and Snap On Linemans. I broke my linemans cutting screws and used the Dewalt pliers to finish the job.

I purchased a new pair of long nose pliers because my others were apparently left at a job site. The compound pliers were picked because the standard action ones were not available. They actually have great grip and worked amazingly well on the job. I’m glad to add them to my tool bag!

Purely Awesome
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these for my husband, and he said they are some of the strongest and most durable pair of long nose pliers he has ever used. The locking mechanism in my opinion amazing, because when I am putting his tools away they are not getting caught on everything thanks to that mechanism.

Fits nicely in my hand. Spring action to re-open the jaws while working makes things easy one-handed (much nicer than a similar Milwaukee set that I bought without the spring). Would recommend this one.

Bought these pliers after trying to do some wiring and difficult to put the hook on the wires to install outlet. I like that they are longer and can reach farther. They are quality made. There were several to choose from and I felt these were quality for the price.

Pliers
Good pliers, I like the compounding action and the ability to lock closed. Can be a pain to unlock sometimes when you are in a hurry.
