Klein Tools 510216SPBLK Deluxe Black Canvas Tool Bag, 16-inch

Looks great, well made. Should last years. Initially was going to get the 18" but got the 16" instead and it is still a much bigger bag than expected. It isn't my goal to pack it full of tools, but if I did there is so much space in this that it could easily carry a lot. I think I could have been fine with the 14" , but wanted just a little more room in case I ever decided to throw in some extra clothing or use it as an overnight travel bag.I also have the 12", but that has no inner pockets or tool holds, still, very nice in its own right.

Well-built and customizable tool bag

I wish I'd bought the next size up, as I filled this bag with electrical tools in no time. Very well-constructed, although I wish there were a couple of snaps built into the metal reinforcing strips across the top. This simple addition would allow the bag to close more tightly, as the leather straps leave a gap even in the most snug position. It is for this reason I dinged the product one star. In time I may add a couple of bolts and wing nuts in place of snaps. The nice thing is the metal strips are sturdy enough to support such a mod.Many of the inner pockets are narrow, which would suit things like screwdrivers but I needed room for wider tools like pliers, big wire strippers and a multimeter, so I cut out some of the stitching to combine many narrow pockets ... MoreI wish I'd bought the next size up, as I filled this bag with electrical tools in no time.

In this way the bag is highly customizable and I wish I could award it 4-1/2 stars.

Klein 16” Black Deluxe Canvas Tool Bag is rugged and very heavy duty. Made in the USA, even has a little American Flag on it. The bag is lined with 13 pockets and plenty of room on the floor for things like drills and other items you need to work. The pockets are not sewn on/to the sides so they can float as you fill them with heavy bulk items like cutters pliers and the like; making the balance better and closing the bag works better and there is a lip that runs along the top frame on one side on top that closes the bag so it fits in place, completely closing a full tool bag. I show the frame in my photos, it's one of many small features that really adds to the well engineered design of this bag, high quality materials bring it together.

Tools bags lead a rough life and this one was born ready.The wet proof base of the bag is made of heavy vinyl with 6 feet that will keep the bag from scratching surfaces. Rivets are additional used to hold it together. The No. 8 black canvas is heavily stitched. The handles are tuff as nails. Then it has the two buckles to tighten up the bag top up. I bet you could pack this bag and drop it off a cliff and it would stay closed even after hitting the ground, don’t do that, just remarking on how well made this is. Then the shoulder strap is adjustable and makes a heavy tool bag a little easier to handle, frees up your two hands for more things. I have not seen a better bag. Excellent.

Another quality product from Klein Tools that is practical and for use and purpose. Made in USA too.It is black canvas material of yesterday, not that thin stuff with plastic lining canvas, its that old day canvas of yesterday and it is a deep black matted color so that help cover dirt.What I notice is the details of the finish too, looking at the inside seams of the canvas they are all seam stitched so that it will not unravel like loose threads. I especially like the steel framed mouth that is also multiple riveted on. And the vinyl bottom bottom that will increase the durability of this tool bag as well.I use it for my gardening/landscaping tools cause its the right size that I can carry my digger hand tool, my hand grass shears, knee pads, hand pruners, ... MoreAnother quality product from Klein Tools that is practical and for use and purpose.

I also found the old fashion "working" buckle straps a nice touch also.

Another quality product from Klein. As with basically ever Klein product this is another product made in the USA using quality and durable materials. The basic shell of the bag is made from heavy duty black canvas with leather handles and a vinyl bottom. The vinyl bottom is not a cheap out on Klein's part it serves a purpose to moisture resistant plus Klein put studs on the bottom to increase the life of the bag. The mouth of the bag is made from a steel frame with a good set of hinges that allow it to open wide so you can take full advantage of all 13 pockets within the bag.The stitching on the bag and all the pockets is high quality and look like they will hold up to a lifetime of use.

I would definitely recommend this tool bag.

I received this as a gift with the personalization of my initials and local union number. The bag is made extremely well and it very durable. It is unique and is very professional compared to the other trades steel tool boxes or the run of the mil Big Box Stores standard tool bags. This is in a league of its own in my 28 years in the electrical field I've never seen a tool bag that says ALOT about the professionalism of the person carrying it. I've gotten nothing but compliments and inquiries of where it can be purchased at since I've been using it. Thank you Klein for once again providing the electrical Craftsmen with another quality product that will last generations. I highly recommend this bag for any tradesman to keep your tools safe and organized in also it ... MoreI received this as a gift with the personalization of my initials and local union number.

Heavy duty tool bag that puts my others to shame, even the fancy brand named varieties.So I, like many of you, have accumulated what I'll call a good amount of tools over the years. This means that I also have a good amount of tool bags, boxes, and chests. This bag makes my other bags look lightweight. This is made from #8 black canvas, has steel reinforcement at the top, a heavy waterproof vinyl base, and enough stitching and rivets that it would likely hold a lot more weight than you could ever stuff into it.The downside of the steel top reinforcement is that it's top heavy without any kind of vertical support structure. This means that it flops down on itself unless it's very full. I think this is an acceptable tradeoff for the strength and size of the bag, ... MoreHeavy duty tool bag that puts my others to shame, even the fancy brand named varieties.So I, like many of you, have accumulated what I'll call a good amount of tools over the years.

The other thing that made me dock 1 star is that the 13 pockets that line the inside are far too deep for most things to be stored in them, limiting their usefulness.I'm using this for my "go bag", which is really just a complete set of commonly used tools that isn't part of a defined set, with enough range that I can just grab it and go if someone needs help with something or if something random breaks around the house. I have a bunch of screwdrivers, wrenches, a drill, electronic monitoring and measuring tools, and general pack of nuts, bolts, and nails in common sizes. I could fit even more, if needed, and this could easily be used by a professional for daily use on a job site.This bag is worth every cent and will probably last you a lifetime. Oh, and it's made in the USA!

Klein Tools 16 inch Deluxe Canvas Tool Bag with Shoulder Strap in Black has that special Klein look. Klein is known for their white canvas bags and this a variation on that classic design. It is well made with leather touches, buckle closures, rivets, soft leather handle and padded cloth shoulder strap for more style. I guess it's the metal hardware, studs that contrast with the black color that gives it that different look.The leather complements the heavy-duty number 8 canvas which is not stiff as you'd expect from their other bags and buckets, but softer. Above all Klein bags are practical so they used Naugahyde-like material on the bottom . The bottom has six small plastic feet to keep it off any wet floors and makes it moisture resistant.

Opening the bag inside is a substantial stainless steel frame with metal hinges that opens wide and lies flat. This is an advantage because you can quickly see everything in the bag as well as makes it easier to store larger items. For this aspect it has plenty of room and plenty of pockets, thirteen in count, located around the inside of varying sizes. It is very similar to their white canvas bag in this size, so I guess, they now offer a choice of colors. It's a good bag and time has shown these Klein bags hold up to tough use.

Klein Tools 18 in. Deluxe Canvas Tool Bag with Shoulder Strap is heavy duty durable tool bag. Seriously, I have seen similar built true heavy canvas bags from 50 years ago that held up well. I can't imagine that this bag would just fall apart like many you get today which are thin and just feels cheap.There is nothing cheap about this bag. It has actual leather handles, leather straps, metal buckles, and riveted metal frames for the opening. The vinyl cover bottom and sides with rubber feet make it it even more durable and usable.

Yes. I am sure when the next person inherits this bag, once I am retired or too old to actually fix my stuff, will also appreciate it just as much.

The first thing I noticed taking this out of the box was it's weight, it is 4.5 lbs. A lot of products today seem to be some variation or grade of a "Denier fabric", this tool bag is not, it is a heavy No. 8 black canvas. The only flaw, and that came apparent very quickly, is that it is top heavy, ( There is a hinged steel frame at the the opening) and it falls in on it's self making it a little difficult to load. I will figure out how to install a set of vertical stanchions, probably out of PVC pipe, to provide support so it will stand open. With the top closed it utilizes 2--3 hole straps and buckles. To pick up and move quickly just grab the "Leather" handles. The bottom, (which has 6 no scratch rubber feet), and approximately 2 inches up the sides uses a heavy ... MoreThe first thing I noticed taking this out of the box was it's weight, it is 4.5 lbs.

I really appreciate the heavy duty, adjustable and removable, shoulder strap. With the tools I have loaded right now it totally weighs 21 lbs. This will be my "What If bag" that I will keep in my truck. So that everything is not just thrown in it, it has 13 various sized interior pockets to provide a little more organization.This is a nice bag and extremely well made and should last a life time.After all it is a KLEIN.
