Overview
Non-slip plastic-coated handles are the standout spec on this 9.5 inch Knipex plier, model 00 20 72 V01. Weighing 13.12 oz, it is built for a secure grip during shop tasks rather than for insulated or live-electrical work.
Knipex is known for precision-forged hand tools, and this listing confirms handle coating, length, and weight but not the jaw type or cutting capacity. Buyers should check current listing photos to confirm it matches their specific plier need, whether that is cutting, gripping, or adjustable jaw work.
- 9.5 inch overall length
- 13.12 oz weight
- Non-slip plastic-coated handles

Who it's for
Tradespeople and DIYers who want a comfortable-grip Knipex plier and already know which jaw style they need from the product photos. Not ideal for buyers who need jaw type or cutting capacity confirmed from spec text alone.
Strengths and trade-offs
