Tool Test: Screw Removal Pliers

No, that’s not a misprint. Pliers to remove screws. I’ve been in the trade over 40 years, and I’ve usually used a thin metal thing with a handle for that job. Certainly not a pair of pliers. Not until now. How many times have you come across a screw that, through poor equipment or too much torque, as lost its screwdriver recess? When this tool crossed my desk I was impressed by the quality. It looks and feels solid and has a nice action. The cutters are great and the serrated part for holding round objects stood up to anything I could throw at them...
