High Leverage Diagonal Cutter with Comfort Handles 200 mm, 74 02 200

Great for cutting guitar strings. The 160mm long 74 02 160 is perfect for guitar strings. The larger 200mm size is for bigger jobs.

These are great! I use them when making artificial wreaths to cut tough wired stems.

Short Review: Good size, well made, great action, can cut piano wire and still cut tracing paper they're so good. Long Review: I bought these over a snap-on pair and have no doubts they're as good but probably better. This grip length is perfect in my opinion and the jaws are sharp right to the tip, so great for cutting fine/thin locking wire which is flush against a flat surface/panel. Comfy grips and a great action, there is no play in the rivet at all yet the action isn't stiff. My pair arrived inside an extra polythene bag as the tool was covered in a light film of machine oil to prevent any corrosion during storage/transit so a light rub over and they're ready to go. I ordered these after hearing rave reviews about them from a famous TV presenter on a show testing myths (you know the one), I now understand why.

Value for money. Cutting ability. Functionality. Recommend

Leaving the Knipex hipe on the side, I can tell that they are well made. Sharp and easy to hold, can cut trough screws with some effort and cables are not a problem for them. I couldn't cut very thin sheet metal, but they are not designed for that. I will recommend to someone that look after the tools and enjoy using quality. Or people that use them on a regular basis for work, so the price difference between a cheaper set is justified. If you are "saving" to get a decent pair of cutting pliers, might not be the best choice. Since a tool is mean to be used without hesitation or fear of damaging it and this ones are to pretty to use them as a hammer. Even though I believe they can take the beat!

One of the best pair of snipers

Cuts through almost anything within reason and stays nice and sharp whilst doing so. you can swap from cutting steel wire to packing strap with ease

Anyone in the motor trade has heard of Knippex and their tooling. These side cutters are no different to the rest of their products. High quality, well made and very sharp. The slightly longer than standard handle makes them easy to use.

Great quality in build and finish if this product, will definitely last a long time, well worth the extra money.

Kaliteli ürün, deneme yaptım teli kestim iyi sayılır. İzeltaş da aldım birini köye götüreceğim biri İstanbul da kalacak, keşke ikisinide İzeltaş alsaydim Türk çeliği daha sağlam.

My husband lost his and I got him this one. Definitely not a cheaply made tool.

Excellent pair of side cutters to add to my collection of comfort grip tools.

Quality tool. Worth the money and do last a long time. We have many Knipex tools and the quality is high.
