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

I bought the cheap pair of Irwin snips at the home improvement store while waiting for these to arrive so I could continue on my project. Those snips were a nightmare. Nothing but blisters and pain. Some nails it just couldnt handle. These snips, on the other hand, can handle the same load and more with a single hand and minimal effort. If I could afford to, I would replace all my pliers with Knipex versions. They always blow me away with what they can do.

Works fantastic, cant wait to use it more.

Works well. I am happy with purchase.

Not a great product for $50

I bought this to cut nails on the underside of my sub floor to allow for radiant heat tubing. these cut nails very cleanly with very little effort very close to the surface. little pricey but they work super nice so i would recommend.

Stronger Grip, Durable Handle Covers , a Product you can Trust for a Long time ... translates to an Excellent INVESTMENT. And probably “ A Well Legacy to our next in Kin “

I have used a lot of different tools for clipping nails, but this is by far the best. Even the big name brands dont work as well. I used this to clip nails recently in a basement before installing radiant floor heating. I clipped upwards of 100 nails in each 16 framing bay of a 1000SF footprint home. that is many many thousands of nails. This tool doesnt have so much as a chip in the cutting surface. Do keep in mind that the hardened cutting surface WILL chip if you pry on a nail and lose grip allowing it to slide. The harder metal is more brittle in this direction. The higher leverage point and offset cutter helps read awkward areas more easily. From flooring nails to standard 3 nails, and even up to 4 galvanized Nails. This tool does the job. I would say the protruding remnant is 1/32 or less when this tool is used against a flat surface with easy access. This can easily be ground flat or left alone depending on your need.

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.

I chose these cutters for leather working because they have a compound action. This makes cutting brass rivets more manageable than with traditional cutters, the handles are offset to the side of the cutters and that also helps gaining access to cutting in some hard to reach areas .

Great, love these! offset hinge lets you cut longer nails or wire since the hinge doesnt get in the way. Easy cut of hardened nails and roofing nails - much easier and better than 17 Crescent brand, and better than a German brand. These are the easiest to use of all three brands, lowest required hand strength to cut the same nail.
