I have Knipex with both handles and am only getting comfort grip from now on! :) **Q: Does the comfort grip hold onto grit making it more difficult to clean?** A: Rocketman:I have not noticed the grip collecting grit or dirt. The Knipex comfort grip material is fairly rigid (not spongy) - So the "comfort" factor is in the shape rather than being cushioned. I don't think this is going to get very dirty.Cheers! **Q: The black finish model says "steel" while the regular says "chrome vanadium steel." is there really any difference in materials between the two?** A: Material of Knipex 86 05 250 (10-inch) Pliers is identical Harden Steel. The difference your notice is in the type of Rust Protection that is used. Using the information found on Knipex Website Pliers 86 05 250 Chrome Vanadium Steel has better rust protection than Pliers 86 02 250 Black oxide finish similar to your cast iron pot.

It is great and comes in handy for a lot of jobs you might use pliers for and it has totally replaced my adjustable wrench. Havent owned them very long but they feel very solid so I imagine that they’ll hold up. I wish it had a spring so it was easier to use 1 handed but maybe theres an obvious reason that it is hard to build them that way. Comfort grips are great, finish feels nice and looks thick. Kinda expensive to buy in the US but if they last a while then it’ll be worth it. I kinda wish I had gotten the lanyard version but that is on me. I also think it would be kinda nice if they made a version with the imperial measurements on the front but maybe the us market isn’t big enough. It isn’t the biggest deal because they still feature metric on the front and imperial on the back. While they work better than an adjustable wrench for every task i can think of, they are objectively more difficult to use one handed which may or may not be important to you. Note that once you get it set for your bolt size it stays put so unless I need to adjust it after every bolt, it hasn’t been a hindrance. ## Frequently Bought Together - KNIPEX Tools - Pliers Wrench, Black Finish, Multi-Component (8602180) - Knipex 8702180 7 1/4-Inch Cobra Pliers - Comfort Grip - KNIPEX Tools 13 72 8 Forged Wire Stripper, 8-Inch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/207194447-knipex-86-02-180-7-1-4-in-pliers-wrench](https://www.desertcart.us/products/207194447-knipex-86-02-180-7-1-4-in-pliers-wrench) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-10-18*
