Micro Cutter Flush Cutter Soft Wire Cutters Professional Cutting Copper And Aluminum Wire Cables

I found these flush cutters to be well made. Blade alignment was spot on, the steel seemed to be good quality. Handles were comfortable. Springs were good and springy. Very happy to include in my job bag. I recommend them.

Very good quality at a great price. I use these to cut parts out when building plastic models. I have also cut copper wire with these. No dents or chips after a lot of use. It cuts cleanly and squarely. I have two of these and would purchase again if needed.

This is actually the second pair of the same snippers I have bought here! Not because they were broken or didn’t perform, actually the exact opposite! They work so well and are so comfortable, I had to buy a second pair for my other electronics kit! Very well built and feel very sturdy, although I haven’t had to put a lot of strain on them. They just fit the hand well, sharp enough to cut and string enough to hold the edge. One of the main issues I find with wire cutters that are meant to cut flush to a flat surface, is they never seems to get the blades aligned to where the underside that sits against the flat surface…flat. One side always seems thinner than the other, and you wind up with sloppy cuts. The first set I bought were almost perfectly crafted to be flush, and required very little adjustment. I actually wouldn’t have needed to adjust them and they would have been fine! I’m just very picky and ocd about this type of thing! lol The second set needed no adjustment at all! They were so close to being perfectly flush that you would never know, or need to know, that they were off. Because they weren’t! Anyway, great snippers and highly recommended! OH!! lol I play guitar as well, and I use clippers like these when changing strings. 9 out of 10 times, the nickel strings would cut grooves into the clippers when trimming the excess! I haven’t had problem one with these and they don’t show any signs of the strings cutting grooves into the edge. And I’ve cut around 70 strings with the first set! They’re very tough!

Gets the job done. Takes care of thinner component leads and cuts them down pretty flush. Struggled with thicker leads. Blades became pitted over time.

Probably my most used tool. Kept in the OG packaging. Never let me down.

Very high quality nippers

These are some of the best flush cutters that I have used. I do a fair amount of modeling and these cutters have blades the line up perfectly and are flat and flush and they remain so. Remember that these are NOT for cutting hard wire and metal they are for cutting softer materials where the accuracy of the cut is what is important. The better the cut, the sanding and finishing you have to do at the site of the cut. That saves time and eliminates the grunt work. Comfortable in the hand and nicely sprung. Highly recommended. Would buy again.

First the short: I love this style of cutter, but mine don't properly align. Due to that defect, they miss the mark. I'd pass given a second opportunity. So, mine haven't failed catastrophically as some reviews have shown. Yet. I will say that this style cutter, and I've owned several different brands in the past, is prone to catastrophic failure of one side of the jaw or the other. I don't think any manufacturer would suggest anyone cutting with these things without safety glasses. Not blaming anyone or trying to detract from any other things mentioned, just throwing that out there. I've done severe, permanent damage to one of my eyes in the past in an unrelated way. You only get one set of eyes, use safety equipment. Even though mine have yet to fail, the jaws on mine misalign. I can cut larger diameter copper (10 to 14 maybe), but thin wires can be painful to cut. Even on the larger wires, it makes it feel like the cutters are dull. They cut nearly through, with a center portion that is off probably one to two millimeters and the wire kind of just breaks from stress fatigue. My previous pairs from other brands were better, but these have lasted longer since I don't really use them due to the issue. I bought them primarily due to cost and quantity. In this case, you get what you pay for.
