Pliers are one of mankind's oldest tools and one that has undergone the most change and specialization. Finding their origins in tongs used for blacksmithing, pliers have gotten smaller and have been fine-tuned to take on jobs like gripping, crimping, cutting and many more. Our collection pliers are made by toolmakers that have been making pliers for a long time, and they're companies that have invented some of the modern pliers we all use.
