Vice: you can use the pliers to hold something, and then close them back up into the tool. The tension of the tool storing away will vice the item in place. Soldering wires, holding two items together to let the glue dry on, hold a flashlight for hands free use, ect.

I feel like Swiss Army Knives are one of the few products made by big companies nowadays that are made to last as much as possible rather than break easily so that costumers have to buy new ones all the time.

Great in a vehicle for pulling those tiny fuses...

Felix Immler= the most enthusiastic personality on KZfaq! Thank You for your informative and fun-to-watch content Felix.

Comment #2: I never forget those two videos of the marine biologists extracting a plastic straw from a turtle's nose, each with their respective Swiss Champ, using those pliers.

I found that it was a better pair of tweezers than the actual tweezers! I had to remove about 100 cactus needles from a camper one time! The tweezers didnt have enough great p to do this!!!

Nice upload as always Felix! 3:30 You can also press the needle against the table or a piece of wood and press the leather workpiece on top, this will give you even more power with thicker leather or whatever you want to sew.

I will now use my pliers more , thanks Felix ⚔️👊👍

As a computer tech I have the cybertool the pliers have been invaluable for all sorts of handy uses. Even crimping electrical spade terminals.

This sounds painful, but is very effective. I use the SAK pliers as tweezers to remove hair from my nostrils and ears. The pliers can remove very short hairs from difficult to reach corners. They also remove clumps of hairs, and not just one or two like tweezers do. This is actually my main use for the pliers.

Für mich als Angler immer dabei , das Champ . Die Aderendhülsen Vorrichtung finde ich auch sehr brauchbar. Damit hab ich schon etliche Hülsen gesetzt. Klein ,aber fein und immer da. Alles Gute

I always thought the Pliers felt solid, were well-made, had VERY precise tolerances, and were and very high quality I've used mine, in my work, maybe once a fortnight since 2009, when i was gifted my 'Angler' SAK (even though i don't use it for fishing) They're still perfect, despite the extreme 'abuse' i've sometimes given them, in my occasional daily line of work Well done Victorinox, Cheers Felix - You Rock 👍

I use mine all the time on my Swiss champ, as a matter of fact I loved it so much I bought a 2nd Swiss champ and I keep one in each vehicle also have an old one in my junk drawer that I'm constantly reaching for....

The pliers are also useful when working with paracord. Pulling short working ends and crimping melted ends shut come to mind. The tip about direction of force application was immensely useful, too. And that fish looked mighty tasty. Thanks, as always, for the terrific video!

I just want to share that I am born American and lived in the US my whole life (aside from a once in a lifetime 3 week trip to Germany, Switzerland and Austria). I never understood why so many people around the world believed the metric system was better until I recently got a Victorinox SKA. It's so much more visually intuitive making it a lot less prone to measurement errors. I can't believe I am finally only learning this now and that it's all because of work with my SKA. I wish the imperial system would go away but the US is way too involved with it. It's everywhere here. 😩 Anyway, thank you Felix for these great videos. They've been a huge inspiration for me.

The Swiss Work Champ has been my EDC at work for nearly two decades. Partly because those little pliers are so darned useful. Love your videos, and got your books. Cheers, from Chris in Cornwall UK.

Its been too long since Felix has made a tips and tricks video, great to see the series back!

Nice one Felix I bet you thought I disappeared No, I’m still here good review till the next video Ciaooo bye can’t beat a Swiss Army Tool in my opinion

As an electronics tech, these tiny pliers are much more handy than I expected when I first saw how small they were. They're very handy for holding things to solder or bending component legs. One of the best unexpected uses for them is as tweezers, both for grooming and splinter removal.

Thank you, now my handyman is even more handy =) love your videos

We like to eat sunflower seeds but the shell is sometimes too hard to break with our fingers. For some reason we don’t do it with our teeth .An ordinary nutcracker is too big , even a pair of pointed nose pliers is too big . But the plier you describe is ideal. Long live Victorinox. !

I often find the pliers useful when undoing knots ;)

One more use for wire cutter - if u cut wire on 45' u get quite sharp point just by cutting. Thx for another good and usefull video!

just got myself a nice Handyman. perfect moment for this video!

I received a Champ with the belt pouch as a gift many years ago. My EDC is a Huntsman, but if I'm going camping, hunting, fishing, or anything afield, I bring my Champ. It's like carrying a toolbox on your belt.

Lieber Felix, es ist jedesmal eine große Freude, zu sehen, wieviel Freude Dir Deine Arbeit macht - You´re a lucky man :)

Finally pulled the trigger on a champ and I have to say am loving it over my compact 😂😂 it's realy annoying me how all my cheep tools don't rust like my leathermans but in the UK so be the champ lol thanks for the video mate I can live with small non rusting pliers if I need a decent set as you know we grab the knipex 😂😂👍

Great ideas! I’ve been using mine as great fishing pliers too. Here in the USA, we have many new medicine bottles of pills where you have to remove a tab under the lid. Sometimes they are hard to grip to pull off, but these precise pliers make it easy :)

Wie immer sehr Ideen- und einfallsreich und toll gezeigt lieber Felix! Zum was kleines reparieren auch immer prima! LG Sepp

I was 8 years old when I received my first Victorinox as a christmas gift. I put it through some serious abuse being a kid, but absolutely loved it and wouldn't be without it. At 21 I purchased the angling edition and I still have it to this day. It's been used on so many projects and repairs (and fishing trips) that I've lost count. Last Christmas in my 43rd year, my wife bought me a Champ, and I'm still learning all about the different functions. The pliers were a major feature for me - I use them regularly for everyday repairs including jewellery. The crimpers are a fantastic edition for fishing and making rigs, especially sea fishing when crimps are needed to secure tough rigs. Thanks to this video, I only just learned about the wire cutter feature at the base of the plier opening. Stay safe and well Felix, I loved this and many other of your videos!

Subscribed. I have always carried a SAK w/pliers in the field. Folks complain about them, but as you have demonstrated, they are for finer details. Thank you!

What the Victorinox SAK pliers lack in size, they make up for in dexterity. I love that they're sprung and you get excellent control with the large SAK body to grip and thumb operation. Much better for many tasks than larger unsprung pliers, in my opinion.

I've had my Swiss Champ for probably a couple of years now and I'm STILL learning things about it.

I’ve always liked the pliers, just wish they had them on a simple knife for camping. Something like large & small blades, can opener & bottle open, wood saw, pliers. They would be perfect for adjusting the simmer ring on the Trangia & grabbing a small hot pot.

Judging by the listing on Amazon, the least expensive Victorinox with pliars is the Tinker at about $42. Next is the Evolution S52 at $54.59 and the Handyman at $58.73.

Another EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT VIDEO!!

I had a swiss army mechanic 20 years ago. One of my favorite of all time , but long lost and discontinued. It was my first introduction to the piers.

Love your videos and your enthusiasm is contagious.

Buddy, one of the best fishing pliers for tying and maintaining your rigs. I'm super glad you mentioned that 👍

Felix, you are an inspiration to us all!

Thank you for such an imaginative video. SAKs are the best.

Indeed, those little pliers are like finger tip extenders. I find many uses for them. They are not competing with multitool pliers. And yes, the little pliers is fantastic for splinter removal. If I need a bigger pliers I have a 23 year old SwissTool which is still in great shape. Always enjoyable videos! Thanks.

For this video, one single like is simply not enough!

This is a great tutorial video. It arrives before the arrival of a Victorinox Mechanic that I am buying.

I've always liked those pliers. They shouldn't be compared with the pliers found in the Swiss Tool, which are much sturdier. The 91mm pliers is for smaller jobs and have saved the day on many occasions.

I have watched your many videos, which seemed to make me have an idea to survive only with one swiss army knife. Thank you very much! I've learned a lot from your videos.

Victorinox Swiss Army Knives are precision tools!! My favorite and EDC....now I need a model with the pliers!!! Sir Felix you have sold me and are teaching us so much informative Tips & Trickery!!! USA 🇺🇸 ❤ Loves Sir Felix and Victorinox Swiss Army Knives!!

A friend got a flat tire on his bike from a piece of wire embedded through the rubber tread to the inside. The pliers on my Deluxe Tinker were able to remove the wire to allow putting a new tube back in while out on the road.

The pliers have been one of the most used tools from my Swiss Champ for nearly 30 years. As Felix says, they’re not heavy-duty, but they are great for gripping items with precision. Removal of heavy gauge staples from thick documents is quickly done with the pliers. I always have my Champ available for the chore more often than the stapler remover can be found.

I just gained new respect for my SAK thanks man

Not a heavy duty tool but definitely a handy duty tool ❤

i use the pliers on my Handyman to change nozzles on my 3D printer, since i bought a bunch that didn’t match an wrench i had. underrated tool imo

4.22 as an Austrian (Victorinox-Fan of course ;-) ), I must realy grin and smile at your "Sausage fingers"...😋😉

Watching Felix's channel is always a treat! He is the McGuyver of our time. I have a Leatherman Surge and Squirt, but I use Felix's tips and tricks all the time.

I recently used mine to pinch close the holders on windshield wiper blades to remove them.

I heard sometimes there good for holding small particles of a plant rolled up in Paper and set on 🔥

The master at work again!

The pliers are great for taking out those super tight knots

For me I have the SAK Handyman for light work and the Leatherman Wave+ for heavy duty... My perfect Tool kit no matter where I am.... Love My SAK Use it everyday.... And LOVING Your vids Felix..... So damn informative........ Thank you

I make jewelry and I have found that for the type of jewelry I make these are the perfect combination of bending and cutting

The pliers are my favorite. I started with Victorinox Deluxe Tinker in my early collection because of the pliers. Very durable and useful in many ways.

Not going to lie, I've seen them and thought they were silly, no comparison to the Leatherman tool in my other pocket but wow, new respect for them! Thanks!

That fish looks so delicious.🐟 😌👍🏻

the pliers is the my fav tool in a SAK, I love the way it looks, design and its uses. the tip has knurling that helps grip small things very well. The older version had no knurling at the tip, its a good thing if you are gripping material that you dont want to mark too much. Also the older plier version was thinner. The newer one is thicker and better. I want a SAK with just this pliers and I will be happy! Currently have the SAK champ that has the thinner version and the cyber tool that has the modern equivalent. SAK in general I have loved ever since I laid my eyes on one!

For me those pliers have saved the day many times at the office for repairing staplers or removing that pesky piece of paper that stays stuck in the printer or the copy machine. Of course I use them also like Felix shows especially for fishing.

Make a Fish hook out of a paper clip! Outstanding!

It can also be used to reach in between two objects that our sausage fingers can't . For example, After making that fish hook, I dropped it in the crack on the granite surface I was using for my work surface. Thanks, as always for your work and thoughts. Be Well and Good Journey Richie

I waiting for this video!

Ich habe gestern schon zum dritten Mal mit der Zange meinen Euro aus einem Einkaufswagen gerettet. Früher fand ich die verstellbare Wengerzange besser, aber wenn man diese mit der von Victorinox Vergleicht stellt man fest dass die Victorinoxzange präziser und griffiger ist 👍

Victorinox SAK pliers are very underrated. They are criticized for their small size, but I find them way more useful in everyday life than the large pliers of plier based multitools

Very good video. I mostly use the plier on my Hercules for holding the hot pan while I cook in the forest.

I cannot recall the number of times I have used my Swiss Champ pliers to repair jewellery, especially necklaces, earrings and bracelets that have snapped. This has always taken place on buses and trains and the owners of the repaired items have always been surprised that someone had the tools to repair their jewellery and had freely offered to do so. Other repairs were to broken luggage and baby buggies (push chairs/strollers). I bought myself the Swiss Champ because I knew that it would be hugely beneficial to have whilst travelling, whereas its hugely beneficial to have regardless of whether one is travelling.

When there were a lot of Salmon Parr or tiny trout in a stream the pliers are handy to squash the barb down on trout flies.

I bought this 33 functions victorinox it is fantastic 👌

I’m considering buying a Handyman for my extended EDC kit and camping kit. I have a 91mm Ranger but obviously the Handyman with the pliers would be so much useful. Cheers Felix!

Just bought a new Swisschamp to replace the one I lost a while back (while fishing 😂) exclusively because I love the Victorinox pliers for fishing related needs. I love that you highlighted that specifically. I also use the parcel hook on my fieldmaster to remove fish hooks when I don’t have a knife with pliers on me, but I pretty much repurchased the swisschamp for that reason. It’s an anglers perfect multi tool

Aaaah, Nice one Felix Few things i didn't know ! Top Man !!!

I didn't think I would use the pliers very much, but after getting a craftsman model, I accidentally discovered that pliers are handy much more often than I ever imagined.

My fav sak is huntsman and super tinker i use the pliers fir fish hook removal and grabbing hot cans of beans off the 🔥

Spectacular job Brother thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise and hello from Detroit Michigan USA brother 👋👋

Really enjoy this series, Sir 😊 Great job and indeed very inspiring. Greetings from Israel

Always a revelation watching one of your videos, great information. Thank you Felix.

Thanks, Felix! I was very undecided between choosing a SAK with a metal saw or with pliers. This helped me decide I would get a lot more use from the pliers. You are a Meister at making videos that are entertaining and packed with great tips. :-)

Спасибо за отличный ролик. Немногие блогеры сами делают то, чему учат. От себя добавлю, что пока инструмент новый, то за счет идеального схождения губок его можно использовать вместо пинцета- вытаскивать занозы и выдергивать волосы.

Watch your video in Canada. Amazingly informative and useful! Thank you for your work!!!

The pliers of my swisschamp saved my day many times, also I use it a lot when I go fishing for the uses You show in the video. Also I use the pliers to remove my nose hairs. Thank you Felix.

It’s a super tool, incredibly

Felix thank you for sharing this one with us you are the Swiss champ🏆😊👍

Heute hatte ich auf meiner Arbeit im Unterricht eine kleine Präsentation wo ich meinem Cheff und 2 Schülern gezeigt habe wie ich mit meinem victorinox Huntsman und einem Feuerstahl ein Feuer mache und habe dich dabei erwähnt und dein Buch weiter empfohlen. War sehr interessant für unsere kleine Truppe😁 schönes Video. Bitte mehr solche Videos 😊🙏💪

Thank you again on a great video! We are glad to see you highlight the use of the pliers. We use them frequently, especially for cooking at in the woods ( I use a plate as frying pan and the pliers as the handle) i also use the pliers to work a wire around my pot to make a handle so I can hang the pot over the fire. I own many Victorinox knives but mainly use the Hercules ( modified the scales and screwdriver, thanks to you again!) and the Evolution 52 (modified as well and is almost like a mini Hercules) Cheers from Canada!

I hope Victorinox paid you for this.. wonderful job! You’ve convinced me of its worth!

I ise it to disassemble legos parts for my kids. Sometimes it's hard to pull them out so that's my favorite tool to get the job done. 🤘

Awesome video!! Thank you!

Great ideas! How about for car fuses and other small engine repair?

I have always underestimated this tool. In fact, for small jobs it can be useful. Happy Life Felix and congratulations.

Danke Felix, SUPER Video! Davon konnte ich wirklich mal wieder einige Anregungen mitnehmen!

Felix, this is an excellent video. Many thanks. George from Greece.

Welcome from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia!

Thank you Felix! I really enjoyed this video!
