good but what happened to the ones with claw on the back?
I bought a pair of the 7” husky end nippers with a hammer claw on the back, and by far they are the best i have ever used once i made a modification to them and made them spring loaded, reason why first off the grind on the top is flush not many end nippers usually are, secondly when i am doing subfloor prep there are a ton of staples to be pulled, and the nippers with the claw made it so it was single tool removal with the claw because you could dig out tough stables where without the claw you would have to use a chisel or small pry bar to pop the staple up enough then pull it out with the nippers. And finally the reason why i modified them and made them spring loaded was pulling 1000 staples and having to constantly open the jaws every time not only takes more time but will kill your hand by the time you are done, with the spring i added they pop open and im just pulling staples with ease left and right.... but my point is i came back to buy a back up pair of them and gone cant even find them online.... what gives???

it works for the way it was designed but the design is wrong. I thought it would nip off finish nails flush to the surface but the way it is designed it leaves a good 16th still protruding, the blade needs to be on the outside of the tip not the inside, now all I have is a spendy pair of wire cutters.

Another Discontinued Husky Tool
If you find a husky tool that you like you better by quickly. HUSKY TOOLS are discontinued frequently and become unavailable in stores in on homedepot.com for purchase.
Most Husky SKU’s only seem to be active for 1-2 years and then are discontinued.

I also use these as a nail puller. I like how well the fit in my pocket. Well, I did. I saw in store that this model was discontinued. Husky updated it with a "claw" nail puller on the one side. NOT A GOOD MOVE. Now the tool is big and bulky. A claw is not useful for precision nail pulling. Bring back this style, PLEASE? I bought a pair of Channellock brand. I already know they don't work as well for nail puulling, but I do not like the "updated" model of this plier at all.

Poor design. I have used end nippers for decades. The length of the handles and the placement of the pivot joint make single hand use VERY difficult, as the handles must be opened too wide for most tasks.
This makes it very cumbersome and time-consuming to use.
I will be returning these and playing a different brand.

I misplaced my Nipper cutting pliers so I went to my store of choice, Home Depot to buy a replacement. Husky makes good quality tools so this is what I bought. I mainly use these to pull finishing nails of which they preform well.

Applied for a store card your system was having many issues that day and I had to wait over an hour for the process to be complete. I was on a tight schedule that day and the wait was unacceptable. Everyone was polite and professional it was just the wait was way to long for such a small savings.

These pliers were exactly what I was looking for to help with cages that I was able to make. I now carry them in my tool belt.
Very lightweight and seems to handle wire gauges easily without dulling the jaws.
Easy to use.... easy to clean.

It was harder to open the jaws than it should be, and didn't provide the force or the closeness to cut the brad nails like I needed it to. Returned it the next day

I bought it for PEX clamp ring pinching. Works fine and it's a good alternative to a rather expensive dedicated PEX clamp tool.
