Amazing tool

Not only are they a springy, grippy one-handed narrow-jaw linesman pliers, but flip them around and they’re a sharp stripper with a needle nose! Great for the homeowner and light duty work.
A pro doing six dozen terminations might prefer a gripper stripper on their belt, but this is the only tool you need to fetch from the garage for changing a switch or rewiring a j-box. I really like that I don’t need to push the handle open with the back of my fingers, and the jaws are narrow enough for tight spaces, but wide enough for an easy grab and twist.
Plier would be near perfect if wire cutter on stripper side was a universal crimper as featured on many stripper and linesman pliers. Non insulated terminal crimper will work on both types and hold better and if wide and edges rounded off will not damage insulation. Cutter on linesman side is sufficient. Great idea, especially for automotive type wiring. Hope you revise them.
