Review: Well made and sharp and precise - Had these a while now , so can comment with the assurance these are very good quality , I mainly use these for cutting fine wire and cable ties ( tie wraps) these are perfect for the cable ties where you can cut as close as necessary to prevent that poor cut and sharp edges that catch people out in a poorly cut tie wrap , after the cut you can rub it and it is smooth no sharp bits , excellent for my line of work , recommend these cutters a lot
Review: Highly recommend these Engineer cutters – excellent value and superb quality. - After many years, my faithful Lindstom side cutters broke – OK, I abused them so it was my fault. But the replacement price was horrendous – about £60. So I decided to try these Engineer side-cutters at a fraction of the price. And I am extremely pleased with my choice. They are high quality, with sharp and precise alignment, excelling in so many areas. I highly recommend these Engineer side-cutters – well made, excellent value and top quality. My first test was to see how close the cutting edges were aligned by shining a light through the blades whilst closed – and they were 100% perfect along the full length of the cutting edges. Then I tried cutting a single sheet of normal 80gr photocopier paper – and they did, to my amazement! Even my Lindstrom side cutters wouldn’t do that. And they feel so much better than my Lindstrom side-cutters – the spring mechanism is positive and the plastic handles are very comfortable. Plus – they are ESD safe – meaning they are safe from electrostatic discharge, so I can repair my processor board in my B&O amplifier without risk of destroying the ESD-sensitive chip. And finally, the all important stamp on the steel – “Made in Japan”. That means pro quality. See how Nikon’s reputation was damaged when they built a factory in China? Thankfully they closed the factory because of quality problems and returned the production to Japan.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what are the min and max diameter wire it cuts?**
A: this is a precision instrument not for general use. I use it for copper wires, but not thicker than 1mm (17-18AWG)

**Q: what is the cutting capacity for brass, stainless, and music wire?**
A: Copper wire only or similar.

**Q: can these be used to cut came lead?**
A: I wouldn't use these for that. You could probably use these if you tried hard enough, but you probably want a pair of snips that are larger than these. These snips are more for cutting small wires.

**Q: Will these cut steel jewelry wire?**
A: These are not mini bolt cutters.  They are wire cutters.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Flush cutters
*by T***T on 22 March 2018*

These are a lovely set of cutters, certainly well made with an eye for detail. My only reason for marking them down to 4 stars is because the opening restrictor needs rethinking it looks very much like an after thought.
