    Unrealistic speed test. You didn’t move the adjustment on the crescent wrench the wrong way, every single time, before making the right adjustment, only to find out you’ve now gone too far. You also didn’t drop the crescent wrench, then forget which way you have to move the adjuster and go the wrong way again.

    I have the pliers wrench in multiple sizes and is my favorite one, but after the cobra which is the most used one. Adjustable wrench is rarely used. But I always carry a hammer. In the past I used my pliers as a hammer and after that they were sticking and the rivet was damaged. So I learned a lesson.

      there are several applications that call for using a hand tool to tighten bolt connection through wood. Impact drivers aren't always the best choice as they can over tighten and damage the wood depending on the application. Rough framing impact drivers works fine.

    Use those tools on bolts that are fastened into steel that are tightly secured. You were cheating with the knipex and not adjusting it to get maximum grip and torque. I bought one of these at work because of the hype. It takes more time to get optimal grip and torque i usually end up readjusting twice to get it on the right setting.
