Forget novelty socks and aftershave sets. This festive season, KNIPEX is putting something far more satisfying under the tree: a premium pair of pliers in limited edition colours.
The 2026 PRESENT Limited Edition is KNIPEX’s 185 mm needle-nose combination pliers, but not as you know them. Instead of the familiar KNIPEX red and blue, the handles come in sleek black and grey design, a look reserved exclusively for this edition.
It’s also the first in a three-part series; the PAST follows in 2027 and the FUTURE in 2028, each with its own exclusive tool and design.
KNIPEX describes its needle-nose combination pliers are a versatile, reliable tool you’ll find yourself reaching for time and again: a combination plier with the slim, tapered jaws of a needle-nose.
The pliers are 185 mm long and featuring a high-leverage joint desigened to make cutting effortless. A milled groove in the gripping area holds and pulls nails, pins and bolts. The cutting edges take on soft, medium-hard and hard wire and are additionally induction-hardened to approximately 61 HRC.
The PRESENT edition also comes with KNIPEX’s comfort handles. Both ends feature the KNIPEXtend interface, so users can clip on TetheredTool attachments for fall protection when working at height or ColorCode clips to mark the pliers as their own.
“The KNIPEX needle-nose combination pliers are an exceptionally versatile tool, ideal for installers and anyone who regularly works in tight spaces,” says David Barnes, Sales and Marketing Manager at KNIPEX UK. “And in this year’s exclusive black and grey, they look as good as they perform.”
