Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I love my Klein! Snatch that up.
  • Klein is also a good brand that many technicians in my industry have
  • I've been carrying a pair of Knipex shears for years, and the dykes (I like Klein ) come out if I can't do it with the Knipex shears.
  • For pliers, Wera makes good pliers, as does Klein (some better than others).
  • Klein stuffs pretty great.

Cons

  • Klein has a new offering though I’m going to look at.
  • Not sure who did it first, but Klein does it worst..Every one of mine came loose
  • I've seen S-K stuff from overseas for a while but now Klein and Channellock, famous for holding out against going overseas, are mostly imported.
  • Some of the bikes were very “normal” looking - Kleins and Treks with aero bars and steep seat angles.
  • Honestly Klein’s quality has gone down hill over the years. They aren’t the same product or company they used to be 20 years ago.
