## Description

High leverage lineman new England head-1,000v insulated.

Review: Best on the market - Best ones yet. Insulated handles are the best and most comfortable. Blade cuts like butter. I've been cutting 10-32 screws for weeks now, probably a couple hundred so far, and it shows no wear. Wish they'd just order me the right size screws haha dont doubt the product!!!
Review: Knipex last the longest - I got these from a Project Farm review on Knipex tools, look him up on YT. Klein Tools are very good but as Project Farm showed, they are designed to wear out, just not as fast as the cheap tools. The Knipex are designed to last as long as possible. They are the only brand available like this. These are truly commercial grade tools that for homeowners with limited use, will last a lifetime.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Q: What's the difference between this "knipex 09 08 240 us" and "knipex 09 08 240 sba"?**
A: This blog post details the meaning of SBA in regards to Knipex part numbers: https://germantoolblog.com/2013/04/18/what-does-sba-mean-on-knipex-part-number-how-to-decipher-knipex-part-numbers/.

**Q: Is there a downside to buying the insulated ones over the non insulated ones?  It's only a 5 dollar difference so I may as well get the insulated ones**
A: Knipex makes the best pliers of any configuration or purpose in the world. I would not see the reason to get the comfort grip or regular grips for a pair of lineman's pliers, especially considering the price difference. If your intended purpose is electrical work, this feature can save your life. Is your life worth $5?

**Q: are these spring loaded like their linesman model with wire strippers?**
A: No. And Knipex does not make a linemans with strippers.

**Q: I just bought the 09 02 240 for the exact same price as these...do mine have any advantage, or should I have bought these instead?**
A: The 09 02 240 are not rated for high voltage 09 08 240 are rated for 1000v and have thicker handles

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Knipex last the longest

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best insulated side cutters, for the money, you can buy.
*by S***G on December 4, 2022*

When it comes to insulated tools, buying a trusted, quality brand is paramount imo. What's $50 if it saves your life? I KNOW that not only are my Knipex cutters going to slice through and grip almost everything I throw at them, without marring, but they are also going to save my life if I hit a live wire with them. For anyone doubting my claims on the gripping and cutting abilities I'd like to submit 2 pieces if evidence, 1 anecdotal and 1 purely scientific: 1. Ive seen my cutters (these) slice through more wires than my coworkers Kleins can (and with less effort), and still maintain their edges so well that they still look close to what they looked like the day I bought them. 2. Look up "Project Farm Best Pliers" on Y0u-Tub3. The host, an actual professional, puts them through a gauntlet of tests, head to head with other brands. He then compares the resulting data, while also showing us (the video itself) of each brand's run through the tests. At the end of the video he gives his own suggestion on which brand is the one that will give you the most for your money (essentially "best bang for your buck"). The Knipex pliers take the crown and, in fact, are so good that he lists them in his best items of 2021 video. In closing, buy some Knipex brand pliers; Side cutters, channel locks, needle nose, diagonal cutters, it doesn't matter what type- just make sure they are Knipex!
