A Few New Knipex Items …

Knipex recently introduced a number of new products in Europe that are beginning to make their way to the North American market. One of the most interesting designs in my opinion is the new Knipex 91 13 250 Tile Breaking Pliers which is essentially a 10″ Pliers Wrench with a specialized soft plastic jaw (replaceable) to aide in breaking tiles and/or porcelain stoneware (after scoring with a tile cutter).
The New Wiha 26inOne Ultra Driver
Wiha recently introduced their new “26inOne” Ultra Driver which includes 13 double-ended bits for a total of 26 different tip sizes. The bits are stored in the handle in a double layer pop-up carousel. There are three versions of the Ultra Driver currently available — each with a different selection of bits.

Ancient German Tools Discovered

We often get phone calls or emails asking us to help identify old tools. In fact, it’s not that uncommon to see tools stamped with “West Germany” or “W. Germany” as was commonplace prior to the reunification of Germany. One tool we have not seen is anything made out of bone or animal remains.
