Here in The Colonies, the 5", 6" and 7" Cobras cost less on Amazon than the 4" XS Cobra (US$33.64 shipped, which isn't bad). #theychargemorefornewstuff
My Cobra XS came in handy the other day to turn a knurled micrometer knob attached to a stepper motor. Due to the amount it was wound in there wasn't much to grab hold of and the stepper motor magnets made it hard to turn by hand
It's true. Once these sell more the price "should" come down. I ended up getting mine from a tool seller on eBay but they were still AU$50 Mind you, from a local store they were AU$80....
..., but buying tools isn’t really spending, is it, eh??!!
I found these Channellock 524 the other day:(Image removed from quote.)They are only 11.5cm long (4.5inches). Anybody have experience with those? Reviews go from great to junk, but first hand experience would be great
Not these in particular SirVic but the ChannelLock adjustables I’ve got are excellent
I have carried a Leatherman and a SwissTool in the past, but I didn't like the pliers on either well enough to put up with how cumbersome I found it to use the other tools.
Can see a pair of these teamed with a SAK Ranger as an excellent pocket tool kit. My ChannelLock 6” adjustables weigh 169gm, so a good saving
Which Ranger do you want it paired with? I can snap a photo for you.
