Great, and amazingly they tell you their maximum cutting capacity on the handle!
JWaters✓ Verified Purchase•September 10, 2017
these work just fine, as advertised and expected. But, "Wait!" as they say on late-night TV, "there's more!."
They are the only pair of cutters I think I have that actually say what is the maximum gauge you can cut, right on the handle.I would venture that someone who buys a tool like this has a LOT of cutters and unless they are Deep Blue or Einstein don't remember exactly what the limits are for each one.So, this is very handy, thanks.
Are any other tool makers listening???

Better than my $15 army painter cutters
Will✓ Verified Purchase•May 26, 2017
I bought these to put in my solder kit after I bought a set of Army Painter Plastic Cutters for my model kit, but quickly switch them once I realized how much better and flatter these $5 cutters worked with my Warhammer 40K spruces. I would recommend these to any model builder,and after using them for building my entire 7th Ed. 1500 point army, they are still cutting just as well as when I first got them.
Awesome small pliers/clippers!

These are great - I've gotten two now, one for my workshop and one for my backpack. They do exactly what they say on the box; they're small wire clippers, they have comfortable grips, good leverage, and the steel on the clippers seems to be pretty high quality. The first one I got is starting to get some minor chips and dings, but I use these for things well beyond their intended use of clipping wires. Leverage to pry on small casings, tearing open obnoxious packaging, gripping weird screw heads, etc.
I also like the admonition printed on the handle, "USE SAFETY GLASSES." Geez, pliers, I'm just tearing a plastic bag open! But okay, okay, safety first...

Amazingly clean cut!

For the money these snips exceeded all of my expectations. We previously we using professional grade snips and honestly we thought they were great. We wanted to get a spare set each so we found these and bought two. After using them I was blown away at what we paid for the professional grade snips because these make a far better, much cleaner cut. If your still undecided about buying, rest assured these will certainly do the job. We use them for cutting sterling, 14k, and gold filled wire mostly (we're jeweler's) but I believe these will accommodate your needs for just about anything.
Flush cut- tastic
Jeremy✓ Verified Purchase•June 28, 2016
So after going back and forth about getting these saying well do I really need them I have so many other cutters.. anyway I got them and they are great they really flush cut that was the only reason I wanted them was to cut things as close as possible I cut lighter duty zip ties and you can't even poke yourself on the cut part its that nice and flush of a cut. I tried them on everything rubber coating's on led strip lights to strip down to the contacts .. clipping solder.. you name it anything that is 1.5mm or smaller this will do a fine job with. I have high expectations of my tools so it's surprising"‹ly that this one being so cheap is actually quite awesome!
