In for 3. These are great adjustable pliers. Bought these on a previous woot a few years ago and use them frequently. I don’t even use my old channel locks anymore.
These are “like” channel locks, but not exactly the same thing. I don’t own a pair, but have used them a bunch of times. One thing I would like to point out is that you have to hit the silver button to open these up. Can be a little annoying when trying to find the right gap. Cannot go wrong with these, BUT they are NOT exactly like a pair of channel locks. Probably more of a preference thing, but wanted people to be aware.
I must say that I’m surprised to see Knipex associated with the Craftsman brand. I didn’t know they did this. Both are great brands and known for high quality products. I have two sizes of these “Cobra” ok pliers but they’re Knipex brand (not co branded with Craftsman) and they’re great.
I remember in the early 2000’s, when you could go into a Sears store, and they would have these on sale for $10 as a special. They are well worth either.
And the best part about the Craftsman name is the warranty!!!

Can these flatten a penny down to copper foil like my Knipex Pliers Wrench? Those are a force to be reckoned with- Knipex is pricey but chock full of awesome.
I have read that these are shorter than their Knipex counter part. FWIW
I’m guessing they are that large empty anchor store in your local mall…lol
Wow, looking at retailers on their website, they show Lowes, Amazon, Ace, and a few others. Not bad!
I believe Lowe’s is taking on and selling Sear’s Craftsman tool and Kenmore appliance brand
Sears sold off their name brands Craftsman and Kenmore. That is why these brands are available from other sources.
Well, if Lowe’s has them and will support warranty issues, that’d be good. Don’t think there would be any issues without some tool abuse involved though. If they will cover that, plus-
No, you need the flat surface of the no teeth, pliers wrench. These are more for gripping the diameter, like holding a bolt/nut.
