Klein Tools 9" Lineman's Pliers

These are a must have for any electrician, no matter what you're doing. They always come in handy. They make great hammers and STILL hold up even after years of use and abuse. I compared them to channellock brand linesman's pliers, and the head of the kleins are way bigger, allowing for easier wire twisting.

These are one of the most reliable tools in my bag. Still going strong after years of abuse. I’d buy another pair today if I lost mine.
