Knipex ESD tweezers -interchangeable tips?

[analogix]

Does anyone know if the Knipex ESD tweezers with replaceable tips are interchangeable?
Let me explain.....
There are 5  (at least that's what I've found) different ESD tweezers available from Knipex. To me, they look very similar to each other except for the tips:

1) Knipex 92 81 01 (130 mm straight ESD tweezer w/replaceable tip -tip width 0.4/2.0 mm)
Knipex 92 89 01 (replacement tip for 92 81 01)

2) Knipex 92 81 02 (130 mm straight ESD tweezer w/replaceable tip -tip width 0.4/0.6 mm)
Knipex 92 89 02 (replacement tip for 92 81 02)

3) Knipex 92 81 03 (130 mm bent ESD tweezer w/replaceable tip -tip width 0.4/0.7 mm)
Knipex 92 89 03 (replacement tip for 92 81 03)

4) Knipex 92 81 04 (130 mm straight ESD tweezer w/replaceable tip -tip width 1.0/2.0 mm)
Knipex 92 89 04 (replacement tip for 92 81 04)

5) Knipex 92 81 05 (130 mm straight ESD tweezer w/replaceable tip -tip width 0.6/0.7 mm)
Knipex 92 89 05 (replacement tip for 92 81 05)

I'm considering the Knipex 92 81 03 with bent tips, and I was hoping it would be possible to attach a couple of other replacement tips (i.e. one or two of the straight ones, with different widths), exchanging them according to my current needs, instead of buying completely new additional tweezers. Anyone know?

On a sidenote, actually (since this is a hobby, and I don't have unlimited resources or needs) I'm thinking of first buying a low cost Adafruit 5951 ceramic tip tweezers to see if that'll suffice.
Hmmm.. I just noticed they might not be ESD. There's the Adafruit 5916 fine ESD plastic tip tweezers, but I've heard that ceramic tips are better.
So, either get a cheap ESD tweezer from Adafruit in case that's sufficient for hobby use, or an expensive, but possibly much more versatile (in case the different size/type tips are interchangeable) and higher quality/longer lasting tweezer from Knipex? The Knipex website says the tips are carbon fibre reinforced plastic -is this equivalent to ceramic tips?

UPDATE: I found something intereresting on the RS-online page for the Knipex 92 81 05. The second photo there shows the tweezer along with two different tips.
Are they confirming that all tips are indeed interchangeable? Interestingly none of the other 4 Knipex ESD tweezers have this illustrated.

.... another interesting hint that tips may be interchangeable. The following Youtube video by Ideal-Tek shows tweezers that look remarkably similar to those by Knipex (a clone perhaps?) and here the tips are indeed interchangeable:

Honestly, it would be stupid to design and manufacture different bodies for different tips.
I'd say there is a 100% chance of the tips being interchangeable. Only downside is - of course - you need to change tips every time you need a different style. That would annoy me.

Yes, production-wise it would be quite silly of Knipex to produce 5 slightly different tweezers with replaceable tips that each only work with a specific tip. I wasn't sure mainly because each tweezer appears to have the model type printed on it (instead of a single model main part but with different tip part numbers), but it is likely the very same metal part for all 5 tweezers.

You're right -changing the tips all the time you need a different tweezer would be frustrating, annoying and time-consuming in the long run. Would it be a better idea to buy a tweezer-set (or multiple individual tweezers) instead? I haven't really used tweezers at all in electronics (I'm used to through-hole components, but will be starting to use SMD components in my next projects), so this is all new to me and I feel clueless to what I might need/should get and the differences between brands and models.

I see you can get "no name" brands in the usual budget places for a couple of Euros each, while brand names (such as Knipex) can cost 10x or more than that. Is it worth it? does it make a difference? I'm open for suggestions.
All I know about tweezers for SMD electronics is that they should be static safe (ESD) and have ceramic tips for better grip.

Thanks for bringing this  up.  The carbon fiber tips may be very nice for watchmaking.  Below is set I order and from where.

Are carbon tips the same (or similar to) ceramic tips? From what I've read, ceramic tips are preferred for SMD electronics (picking up small SMD components).
Will you be using them with both watchmaking and electronics?
Please post back here when you've received the tweezer/extra tips to tell us if the differing tips are compatible with the tweezer itself.
