ENGINEER Compact Precision Compact Long Nose Pliers (Needle tip),Professional Grade, ESD Safe with Carbon Steel Jaws. Made in Japan. ps-03,Black,141mm

Amazing pliers. Comfortable, chunky handgrip, and feels solid and durable too–easy to use with larger hands. These pliers feature extremely precise and strong jaws. I’ve attached a photo of them holding a dime from the ridge, a popular tool truck demo for their small precision pliers. I would compare the quality of this tool to knipex or snap-on, but for a much better value. Being made in Japan with Japanese steel also prevents quality control issues all too common with some *other* imported tools.Great value. Amazing little tool for precision electronics or other small components. Already recommended to all my friends in the industry. 11/10.

First and foremost these ENGINEER Compact Precision Compact Long Nose Needle tip Pliers are a fine example of quality Japanese manufacturing, and indeed are the finest precision needle nose pliers I have ever used in the 40 years I’ve been using them for my current purpose. Though my use may be somewhat unconventional, as I am a quadriplegic with very limited hand strength and finger dexterity. I use these pliers mostly as tweezers as I cannot squeeze or otherwise manipulate conventional tweezers. And I can say without reservation that they do a great job at grabbing a hold of even the finest of hairs. So in my opinion that makes them quite precise. The spring offers just enough tension as to allow me to easily, repeatedly squeeze without fatiguing my hand, yet have enough stored energy to assist in releasing my grip and the spring is holding up after a full year’s use. If and when I need another pair of needle nose pliers, they will definitely be ENGINEER’s.

I can only say that I am delighted with the product.In a world where there are so many low quality things made in China, it is wonderful to have found these Japanese made pliers.Both the finish and the materials are of excellent quality, the jaws, cutting areas and gripping areas are well made, the jaws and tips are well aligned and close perfectly.The various metal parts fit together perfectly, there is not that feeling of wear and loss of material in the movement areas that is so typical of cheap, low quality tools.The only caveat I could give is that the brand offers 2 different sizes for their tools, so it's a good idea to make sure you choose the right one for your needs, also, if you have large hands, you may find the small size tool difficult to use.

These are a little smaller than you may think so be aware. The are designed for use with electronics, jewelry making, model making, small parts manipulation, etc. They are a bit pricy but exceptionally made in Japan (known for quality steel and workmanship). The faces of the jaws are smooth, not serrated to minimize damage to the object you are working with, spring loaded (easily removable if that's your bag), overall lengths just under 6 inches with jaws just about 1.5 inches long. I have found multiple uses from manipulating electronic parts to holding small screws for driving to assembly/disassembly of small parts in firearms. This is definitely a buy once cry once item, as short of them getting lost or stolen, you can expect these to last multiple lifetimes.

I've always bought the super cheap ones and been frustrated with how they don't operate smoothly and all the other flaws. There was a Reddit thread that recommended these and, holy heck, that was some good advice. Perfect alignment, smooth operation, they are a joy to use.

exactly as pictured and described. shipped quickly and well packaged. high quality materials and solid construction.pleased with my purchase but i did take 1 star off for what i think could have been done better... the spring used could have been more robust and made of better gauge material.

These are high-quality, very precise needle-nose pliers. They are very smooth with a good spring function and zero slop in the joint. The handles are very comfortable, dense feeling, and ESD safe, so if you're working on sensitive electronics, static electricity transfer doesn't affect things (lessens the chance anyway). The Engineer Neji-saurus line is now my go-to pliers when I need something I know will last and be very dependable.

These are fantastic. They are just the right size to hold small smarts.I used them for soldering small circuit board parts (resistors, capacitors etc) and they work well for navigating tight areas.The build quality is very good as well.
