Eh even the German made stuff isn't that great. I bought the offset pliers and a few others from them that are German made and while better than this stuff with the darker steel, build quality is still off. None of the pliers fully connect, they all have a gap. You can see countless people posting pictures of the same in the reviews for the German made items. They may have been great back in the day but the stuff they're putting out now has gone downhill by a lot
PS - they are manufactured by the same German factory that makes Knipex, but if you look at recent knipex reviews even those have been suffering from bad quality control and a shoddy build. Used to be the joke that German made irwins were just knipex that didn't pass QA but it seems to be plaguing both brands now

That "gap" has been an ongoing discussion everywhere. The gap on my Knipex lineman pliers is equally on the front and back, but the cutter fully engages with no daylight. My best guess from many sets is that the front and back gap is on purpose to allow the cutter to wear and/or be sharpened to allow longevity. I do have an older pair where the gap is now gone.
