Gearwrench Double X Plier has been a great tool and innovation in industry. It has been on buy list for many DIY users, thou it is not an everyday use tool, it certainly deserves a place in one’s tool box

The Gearwrench Double X plier has a key feature of having a compound pivot joint built into extended length blade.

The trouble with convention extended plier is you need to extend the handles wide to open the jaws. But with these Gearwrench Double X pliers you get more jaw opening with narrower handle spread.

The long extended plier help in fitting into compact and tight spaced compare to old school pliers.
Yes, you compromise on a little bit of accuracy and the pliers are bit bulky, has it has more metal due to the long-extended legs.

These pliers are not suited for all jobs, the shorter legs plier can be more helpful in close up task where space is in abundance and wider jaw opening is not required. Also,it can be helpful where precision and accuracy is required and gives better grip on parts and material.

These are strength pliers for me, however as said they do prove to be useful. My Double-X forceps have procured their spot in my tool kit. There pliers have been very useful in grabbing lint accumulations from beyond dryers lint trap where Claw grab plier don’t work, narrow vacuum nozzles and even tiny tube style plier and regular pliers don’t work well. For such jobs, these pliers have the reach, precision and narrow profile required to clear things
Similarly, It can be used for multiple jobs for placing machinery and screws or adjusting parts and clips.

At present, the Crescent 2pc set is slightly less expensive than the Gearwrench ones. Which one to buy depends on your handle preference style.

I got going with one style and later purchased the other. I pulled off utilizing only one style, yet some of the time having calculated jaws versus straight, or the other way around, works out somewhat simpler relying upon the assignment.
