I'm really torn on the comfort grip. Sure, they're more comfortable and you might be able to squeeze them a bit tighter, but their excessive bulkiness takes up so much more space in a tool bag or tool box that I'm not convinced they're worth it.
If you are even considering this, buy it right now. It replaces a your versatile and somewhat unpleasant to use slip joints with a tool that's... far better in every way. Of all the tool purchases slickdeals has forced me to do, this one represents the biggest practical upgrade over what it replaces. Also, I was replacing high end slip joints so my experience was from the tools design, not from getting a higher tier tool.

Thanks. Forgive my ignorance, but is there still reason for concern with third-party sellers if it ships from Amazon?
I opted to buy the comfort grip version, however from the 3rd party seller "Toolerz", as "Toolerz" has a 100% positive rating (1727 ratings over the last 12 months).
The 3rd party seller "MARG2" has only a 75% rating and that's from a dismal total of 4 total ratings.
It helps to do your research on WHICH 3rd party seller you may opt to do business with.
Paid $35 for the comfort grip version a couple months ago. This is a slick deal.
These things are awesome, highly recommend. They've saved my butt a couple times already actually. One time they worked where the cobra pliers didn't. Extremely strong grip and unique shape help for certain applications and cause less damage.

Get a better tool bag, that's what I did and have no regrets. If I'm paying good money for top tools like Knipex then I want a top tier tool bag like a veto or the new knepix bag.
I want to buy these so bad, because they're knipex, and they look very handy and unique. But I've been a tradesman for almost 30yrs now, and I don't think I've ever used slipjoints on any job I've been on, or even anything I've ever worked on around the house. They almost seem like the "Tucker car" of tools. Very cool and innovative for it's day, but quickly surpassed by more practical, convenient, and or specialized tools… I.E. channellocks, needle nose, linesman pliers, wrenches, sockets, etc.
As cool as these knipex slipjoints look, my "stranded on a desert aisle, where mechanical maintenance needs to be performed tool", would definitely be channellocks or knipex cobras.
Good for griping broke bolts . But other then that I'm with you I want them but don't have many practical uses for them

These are really good for gripping things straight on, like stripped screws. There's even a channel in there for that purpose and they sit very flush

But you have to spend $50 for free shipping.. so I bought two, one for work and one for home. No tax either.
They have some other knipex stuff on clearance to hit the free shipping as well.
