Our 24" High-Leverage Bolt Cutters (CT24HLC) were selected as a PTIA winner in the Bolt Cutters category in Hand Tools. These 24″ high leverage compound bolt cutters feature a double pivot geometry that yields maximum force at the jaws while lowering the required force at the handles.

Crescent Closed Top Tool Bag Voted Best by The New York Times
The New York Times Names Crescent as the Best Tool Bag on the Market

Crescent continues to earn high marks and recognition for its exceptional products. The New York Times has named the Crescent 17" Tradesman Closed Top Tool Bag (CTB1750N) as the top tool bag currently in the market, beating out its competitors.

In May, Crescent was featured in the NY Times Wirecutter article titled "The Best Toolbox". In this article, they compare four different brands.  Our bag earned top marks with the NY Times named it "our pick" because "it trades a jumbled pile of tools for individual slots and pockets" while costing a fraction of other top brands.

Not only did the 17" take first place, but the 14" Tradesman Closed Top Tool Bag (CTB1450N) took runner-up.
