I'm an operator and I work with safety wire all the time. Removing the safety wire from the mechanism can sometimes be painful. I needed a small, strong and most importantly sharp pair of knives to help with the job. This is exactly what I needed. They are made by Klein so you know they are of a very high quality. The safety wire is not soft and this cutter holds up very well. I would say 90% of the cuts he made were in the first 1/16 inch of the tip of the jaws and I see no (zero) wear. I love her. Also made in America. thanks small .
