We Try To Destroy Them To Find Out What Makes Them Good And Long-Lasting. Because We Don'T Want To Leave Anything To Chance, We Take A Long, Careful Look. The Steel Knipex Uses Is Precisely Hardened With A Maximum Of 0.8 Percent Carbon And Defined Parts Of Chromium And Vanadium, Guaranteeing Optimum Cutting Performance And Service Life - Even Though It Requires Special Production And Costs A Bit More. But Our High Product Demands Require This.The Rivet Of Our High-Leverage Diagonal Cutter Also Has To Stand Up To A Lot Of Stress. That'S Why We Literally Give It Backup: We Forge It Straight Onto The Pliers. This Means Extra Effort As We Have To Precision Mill The Rivet To A Few Hundredth Millimeters. But Satisfied Users Are Worth This Effort.Knipex Also Looks Closely At The Small Details. The Angles, The Sharpness, The Hardness, The Toughness Of The Cutting Edges. The Precision And Smooth Movement Of The Joint. The Handle Design And The Finish. We Keep Reviewing These Subjects, We Research, We Test, And We Improve Our Pliers.About Knipexheadquartered In Wuppertal, Germany, Knipex Is An Independently-Owned Family Enterprise Steeped In Tradition And Specializing In The Manufacturing Of High-Quality Pliers.
