306 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other hand tools and workshop hand tools we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The KNIPEX 9K 00 80 147 US carries a 4.8 rating from 306 reviews, one of the higher marks among plier sets, and about 200 people buy it each month. That combination points to a set buyers keep coming back to.
Spec detail is limited. The listing confirms a plastic handle material but does not publish a piece count, individual jaw sizes, or steel type. For a set in this price range, those omissions matter, so plan to confirm exactly which pliers are included on the product page.
At roughly $101 this is firmly premium. It fits buyers who specifically want KNIPEX quality across a set rather than the cheapest path to a few working pliers.

Performance notes
The 4.8 rating from 306 reviews is the main signal here, since the listing offers little beyond the plastic handle material. Treat the set as a brand-quality bet rather than a spec-driven purchase.
What buyers say
