KNIPEX - 62 02 200 Tools - High Leverage Bolt End Cutting Nippers, Multi-Component (6102200)

Knipex are the highest quality pliers and never disappoints love these tools have about 25 of there products now and still want more highly recommended

This tool is worth the extra dollars spent. A few days ago, I tried unsuccessfully to trim some nails exposed in my patio woodwork. The standard nipper I used could not make the cuts, so I decided to splurge on this new tool. I tried the tool on the same job today and it cut like butter down to about 1/64 inch (close enough for me). The job did not harm the tool and I do plan to be very selective in how much pressure I use in the future to make sure my investment stays intact. I recommend this tool. It doesnt disappoint.

Works fantastic, cant wait to use it more.

Whoever hung the light fixture in my house was a monster. They used toggle bolts with heads larger than the keyholes. One was put in at a very steep angle. Both were mostly stripped. I was unable to back the fasteners out more than about an inch with a slotted screwdriver. I would happily have ripped the bolts out and just repaired the drywall, but I couldnt get a grip on them or the fixture to do that. I am short and not very strong or comfortable working above my head, especially with a powered saw. Normal bolt cutters are at the wrong angle. So after reading some reviews of these to make sure that they could handle a couple of 1/4 or smaller threaded fasteners, I ordered them. Id rather spend $60 on these than risk getting a head wound or hurting my hands or my eyes. Took less than 5 minutes to get the fixture down, most of which was me moving from one step stool to the other while a friend held the center. Knipex tools are expensive, but they are well made, well balanced, and a pleasure to use. UPDATE Oct 2020: I didnt have any flush cutters or any other cutters, and I was desperate. Because these cutters are not extremely sharp, they are quite handy for gripping and gently rolling 3-4 inch brads out of drywall so you dont get all scratched up. Handy to know if you have to remove trim to get to the edges of your sewage soaked carpet to pull it out it the middle of the night. As you do.

Chops through finishing nails like a pretzel stick. If you have nails sticking out of wood that you otherwise cant pull out, this is what you need to cut them down to size.

Purchased to cut off nails protruding from the first floor though into the basement before installing new duct work. The nippers have excellent leverage for cutting through wire nails, even with my mildly arthritic hands. Not good for cut nails, however, as these are harder but fortunately more brittle. Easier to bend these back-and-forth with pliers until they break

Excellent tool

Great leverage tool, but whatever youre cutting off doesnt cut as close to the surface as other similar tools like this that I have used.

Durable; allows me to cut bolts and screws easily.

I bought these to pull out nails out of my old trim boards. Theyve a great bite to the nail with easy way to leverage the nail out. Is there cheaper ones out there, yes. Im a buy a nice tool once and spend a little more.
