How do these compare to standard New England style pliers?

Better guality and worth the money i have had mine for 7 years and still good as knew never any problems with them

Will these cut acsr wires, nails and screws?

No these pliers are only used for cutting copper wire and holding nuts while you tighten the bolts up these are electricians pliers

How do these compare to standard New England style pliers?

Much smaller easier to handle but not as powerful

Are these exactly 8" and not 8.5 or 8.75? Have a small zip top go bag 8" is my max plier size

They are almost 8-3/4" best pair of linesman I've ever owned I call them my speed pliers I would get a bigger bag and get these pliers
