I have Knipex and the Channellock Grip locks. As well has the crosshatch push button design.This thing feels tanky. It has a very stout grip and thick handles. The comfort grip is great.Depending on what you are doing with the pliers these might be better or worse. It has a wider grip than knipex, but might not fit in as tight of spaces. The teeth are designed to lock in one direction but will still grip well in the opposite direction far better than the knipex. The only added benefit is the top of the jaws on the channellock is good for smoothing out and removing burrs in piping.Also the 442x is still cheaper than the cobra 250s and is USA made.
Button indexing is faster. Jaws actually open WIDER than original Model 442 ! Jaw teeth a slight, unimportant variation 99% identical. Upgraded version of Chk M 442 is worth considering.I endorse this version.
They are great speed grip style plyers. A little bigger than others in its class.
These are great for gas lines. The handles are very thick and wide tho
Liked over all. Usage
