Hey guys, found some Knipex Cobra pliers at a garage sale for $20. They look barely used! I mostly do woodworking, but I know these are popular for plumbing etc. Worth picking up for general shop use?

Steve, that's a steal! Knipex are top tier. I use their pliers wrenches daily for renovations. For $20, grab 'em even if you just keep 'em as backups. They'll last forever.

Second that. I've had a pair of Cobras on my roof for 5 years. Take abuse like a champ. Just check they ain't counterfeit – real ones have smooth adjustment and stamped part numbers.

Haha you'll find uses. I use mine to pull nails and hold nuts when I'm too lazy to grab a wrench. Welcome to the Knipex club!
