Overview
Nine and a half inches of plastic-handled leverage: that's the Knipex 74 01 200 SBA plier, weighing about 9.12 ounces and sized for shop use rather than a pocket kit.
The SBA suffix on Knipex model numbers typically marks self-service blister packaging rather than a different tool, so this is functionally the same 74 01 200 plier in retail packaging. The listing documents a plastic handle rather than a cushioned dual-component grip.
- 9.5 inch overall length
- About 9.12 ounces
- Plastic handle
- 4.8 average from 4,300 ratings
Who it's for
Suits tradespeople and DIYers who want a full-size plier for regular shop or job site use. Not for anyone wanting a compact, pocket-size tool.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 9.5 inch handle length adds leverage
- Relatively light at about 9 ounces for its size
- 4.8 average across a large rating base
- Plastic handle only, no cushioned grip detail listed
- Full size length won't fit small pockets or kits
Performance notes
The 9.5 inch handle length is what gives this style of plier its leverage advantage over shorter models, letting less hand force do more cutting or gripping work. The plastic handle keeps overall weight to about 9 ounces despite the length.
