Eh, never was a fan of the blue and red grips.

Steevo · May 17, 2013

Same here. I don't care for multi-colored grips on tools.

If you scroll down, everything is available in both grip styles. :thumbup:

I saw they added them to their website a few days ago. Kinda want the E388 45° needle nose.

I'd take an NWS any day.

So what's the difference between the e series and and regular series? Are they tougher?

SpiderGearsMan · May 17, 2013

are they chromed ?

zer0cell · May 17, 2013

Yeah, all of the ones with the multi color grips are also available in the standard versions as well.....

It looks like they made them a little slimmer for tighter access and increased the ease of the cutting.

I picked up a pair and they're very nice.

MJB24 · May 17, 2013

What they did is just moved the pin up closer to add more leverage. I posted the brochure here a few months back that I received at the Grainger Show. The rep from Channellock said they will produce more cutting power in the same size tool

Yes

If they asked me for an suggestions, I would've told them to make the handles longer. Ever since I've owned the MAC P9S nose pliers, they've spoiled me to any other nose pliers.

I like my channelock pliers/cutters/channel locks, a lot better then craftsman and made right here in pennsylvania less then 2 hours from me.

d.mcfarland · Sep 19, 2013

The look nice. Might have to try them out next chance it get!

basspro · Sep 19, 2013

Woah! Whole new "E" series of Channellock tools!!!
