These aren't Knipex and it does show a bit, but a similar Irwin set I have is completely fine and has worked just as well as my Knipex through reasonable use that hasn't been overly abusive.
I was about to buy when I realized that this wasn't as good of a deal as it seemed. Ill hold off.
As for the product itself. They are more than good for heavy homeowner use. The biggest complaint is the overmoulded handles. . If you store them in a tool box/drawer, they are awesome, but They are a huge pain to slide in and out of your tool bag loops. Seems like a minor complaint till you have to deal with wiggling them in and out over and over again. Just something to consider.
