Folks, if you were buying Knipex pliers, which would you buy/recommend? (ignoring length)

I'm leaning towards the chrome plated for the extra rust protection. Also, I guess, the flat jaws or the jaws in the screenshot below. I'm thinking the jaws in the screenshot below for extra flexibility.

Otherwise, I see plastic handled, 2 color rubber handled, and then 2 color rubber handled with "bolsters" on the handles. I'm looking and thinking "would they really make single color and dual color handles where that's the only difference?

Looking at the details, the red is "non-slip plastic coated handles". The red/blue are "slim multicomponent handles." And the red/blue w/bolster are "multicomponent handles." Does multicomponent mean that the handles are plastic and rubber or something like that.



Or am I not looking at some other option that I should be looking at?
