Who Makes The Best End-Cut Pliers?

In this Project Farm episode, Todd tests a bunch of end-cutting pliers to determine which ones are best. He tests Knipex, Milwaukee, Blue-Point, GearWrench, Channellock, Gedore, NWS, Tekton, Barnwell, Wazakura, Bates, Speedwox, Kseibi, Hautmec, WorkPro, American Mutt Tools, Performance Tools, and Irwin brand.

Todd compares the pliers for performance on the closeness of the flush cut, handle-force to cut through nails, screws, and drill bitd. Only one brand successfully cut through a hex key. Can you guess which brand reigned supreme? Yes, the Knipex (at $63 at time of testing) slayed the competition. But, the Wiha (at only $25) also performed surprisingly well.
