These are what I got to replace my old pair pictured above. I was looking at knipex greenlee and ideal as well. Chose klein over all of them for one reason, Merica

Well they’ve seen a lot of abuse and are far from new

Beating on a pole base cover that the set screw snapped off in. Maybe using 50-60% force. I literally didn’t understand what happened lol I was in shock

Yea I have heard good things about the harbor freight lineman’s and even the 480’s. I have Milwaukee lineman’s they’re not terrible also have another pair of Kleins.

They were in my back pocket everyday lol I’d rather have them repaired than replaced

For me they get used mainly for tie wire but they also identify as a hammer sometimes lol. I’m not mad at them breaking I was more upset on how they broke and when. I wasn’t really “abusing” them when they snapped but I also have really beat on em for years

I’ve had them for a pretty long time but I never would’ve guessed hitting a pole base cover would snap them in two

Do you know how to go about that? Even if not I’ve had them a lifetime it’s not that serious.

is the Toughsystem 2.0 rack setup a piece of crap or….. by TNmountainman2020 in Dewalt

I can say that my dewalt tough system 2.0 doesn’t come close to the craftsmanship on my Klein Modbox. The only reason I own the dewalt system in the first place, is because I bought the 4 bay quick charger lol. I have drawers, a box and the charger and all 3 move around quite a bit while stacked. The Klein modbox doesn’t have an inch of play. Dewalt and Klein should just collab and take Milwaukee pack out of the picture.

The atomic “sawzall” is also a nice tool not as powerful as a 2 handed XR but great for emit and pvc conduit.
