I bought these because they looked the same as the Fluke D-scissors and were half the price. They have a slightly different feel and are not as sharp as leeches. I will use them until they wear out and buy another Fluke. Edit: I bought 2 of these and the first one is so worn Juat Cut 1 Cat6 was rough. So he lived 2 months. I'm waiting 2 months for the 2. Order Fluke d shears now in case anything happens to them.
