Klein ToolsD335-51/2C Linemans Pliers, Needle Nose Side Cutters, Spring Loaded, 5-Inch, Extra Slim

Reading the blurbs on this tool I wondered about Klein's QC. Either they are better now or I got lucky. So I gave MY pair 5 stars. The tips are ground so that they meet squarely. No overlap and no side to side. The crosshatching on the inside is perfect. The grips are stuck on well and when they are closed there is less than 1/2 mill light between any part of the jaws anywhere from the base to the tip. This goes away with a small amount of pressure. I can pluck hairs with these pliers. The steel seems to have a good mix of flex and strength. Overall, I am happy. If they made all their tools as well as this one they would be worth the high price.

This small size needle nose pliers is magnificent. It has the excellent quality I've come to expect form Klein. I should have added this to my tool box years ago.

Typical high-quality Klein tools. Sometimes you need something smaller than the standard yellow-handle Klein's. These are the solution, and they work great. I have them in my tool bag and won't go to a job without them.

Perfect

Excellent quality fine point needle nose pliers. On the set I got, the two halves mate up perfectly. No issues with gaps.

excellent and precise while still being strong enough to move things around without bending. i only buy tools that can handle the work and this does it.

Good pliers but started to cross after a month

This is a very practical size of pliers. I use them for fine jobs and almost like a large set of tweezers at times, but with the strength of pliers. The long thin nose is great to get into tight spots. I had to return the first pair because the jaws did not close completely. Amazon took the return with no problem, And my second pair has had no problems. Has good fit and finish.
