I got a pair of these from amazon and it was a knockoff, which seems to be the direction it's heading over there in general. Glad to have the real deal from a company i trust. Very sharp and works for my needs. I have a few brands from venders other than amazon and while they are good, i've been reaching for this pair the most. Thank you TEquipment!

Great inexpensive cutters

5.0

I am only an electronics hobbyist but also a professional building contractor, so I am familiar with tool quality. These are great, sturdy little cutters and while maybe not what a pro would want for heavy use, for 5 bucks and light-duty use they are super comfortable to hold and use and you can't beat 'em. They will easily and cleanly cut one single strand of stranded wire, or snip a clean end on a pre-tinned 14g wire end. Grab a couple of these bad boys and put 'em in your kit.
