Needle nose pliers recommendation?

[foakes]

Yes, like boon said —-

They are slip-joint screw and bolt extractor pliers.

Work from the front or side.

80% of the time, I do not have to drill out a broken screw, stud, or bolt.  Just use a little penetrating oil —- let it set for 30 minutes —- and this grips well and backs it right out.  Reel work, automotive work, machine work, equipment work.

There is a neat video on this Knipex site about the 82 01 200 slip-joint extractors.

The needle nose locking pliers and the duckbill needle nose look very useful as well.  I have a lot of options and now more knowledge than I did before asking.  Thank you again, everyone.

FWIW

The Deckhands on the PV out of San Diego all have rusted up steel pilers which double as Tuna Brain Spikes.

They use one of the handles for the brain spike.

I've watched them dip there pilers in the bait trays and said what are you doing?

They all said salt water is the best lube if you fish everyday!

Makes no sense to me but I'm not a high end deckhand and they're "stuff" never fails when they are called on.

Fish oils have historically been used as lubricant and protectant.

I have the 82 02 200 twingrip with the comfort grips. I think I prefer the standard dipped handles I have on all my other Knipex pliers.

I have a couple pair of duckbills that are my goto pliers when fishing. Those and a pair of dykes/side cutters are on my belt at all times. Both are Channellock's.
