At 5.12 ounces, this Knipex plier is sized 160mm, about 6.3 inches, based on the model number, with an alloy steel handle. Knipex is a German brand known for precision hand tools.

Jaw type and grip coating are not spelled out beyond the alloy steel handle material, so confirm those against the product photos if precision matters for your job.
