Knipex Shears - for smaller hands

Very sharp but for smaller hands,. To get much use out of them I will need to brake out my hacksaw to provide needed thumb access.

Secure Cutting!

These shears are very sturdy and cut great. When using shears you want something that you know will cut easily. These shears do that!

Fantastic Shears

I've purchased 6 or 7 of these shears recently to standardize our tech loadouts. They are a bit bulky but incredibly high quality. They're very comfortable in the hand and the cutting teeth provide the right amount of purchase without slippage. These shears are sturdy enough to cut everything we need and fine enough for clean cuts with OneWrap products. Highly recommend!

Knipex [****] Shears

Bought these as a Christmas gift for my son. I have been using my own pair for several months. As an auto technician I use these daily. In addition to cutting and stripping wire they work well for plastic tubing, flexible vacuum and fuel lines, and tape. Very sharp and precise! Another great tool from Knipex.

Super Sharp

Extremely sharp. Use them for everything from cutting small wire, opening packages, to cutting small labels. Opening are on the small side if you have bigger hands

Nice scissors!

Very high quality. Grip is a little awkward to get a full cut but blades are thick and these things are stout. Not the best for cutting filter media because of the small blade length ( not what their intended for) but overall nice.

Nice strong pair of shears

These are comfortable and just about the right size to fit into tight places and cut cables, zip ties, wires, etc…. Quality made with a nice sheath for belt or toolbox storage.

Great little scissors

Still have to put them trough their paces but initial tests are good. I love the little notch to hold cables while you cut them. It's not going to cut huge cables but for what I need them for they will be perfect.

KNIPEX [****] SHEARS

The two-component handles were beautifully designed from an ergonomic standpoint, and work equally well in both the left and right hands. The blades were perfectly ground, and have produced an effortless, clean shear on every material I've put between them. Perfect for small-medium gauge copper wire. The clip holds the shears very positively, and pivots at the waistline so that the handles don't stab me when I sit down. Would most definitely recommend.

Great, sharp scissors. My only complaint is that they aren't super comfortable to grip.

Very handy. Used daily.

This is my second pair of this style of scissor/snips. I also own several Knipex products. I work in a hospital, mistakes are expensive in both time and material. I bought these to use as general purpose cutting tool and they delivered on all fronts. I do not use the holster. I didn't notice at first, but one side of the cutting surface has very small teeth cut into it which help with gripping the material your cutting.

Not as tough as they look

I think that calling these good shears is fair. Calling them electricians' shears is a bit of a stretch. The blades will deform performing simple tasks like stripping solid core copper wire. Great for plastics and industrial fabrics. Handle is fairly small.

Everyday Carry

These work so well I had to make them apart of my everyday carry on my tool belt. They have replaced my wire strippers. Going to give these as gifts to some of my coworkers.
