Your most useless tool!
Permalink  

So..what is the most useless tool in your toolbox? Told my wife I needed wire strippers for Christmas. Thought was nice...but tool was useless!!! How do you crimp and remove a wire behind a spring??? I'm sure the guy behind the tool had a degree of some sort. Thinking more design...not use!!  1 pair of pliers for every crimp...no

Jeeez, what a pile of offshore garbage! Kind of funny though.

I have a good pair of those made by Klein tools, and they've worked great for probably 20 years. Critically, no spring in the way either.
