Performance notes
Alloy steel is chosen in hand tools for its balance of hardness and resistance to bending under load, which matters most when the plier is used to grip stubborn fasteners or twist wire. Weight of about 1.5 pounds puts it in a comfortable middle ground, heavy enough to feel solid, light enough for one handed use.
