Review on πŸ”§ Crescent 8" Pro Series Diagonal Compound Action Dual Material Cutting Pliers - PS5429C: Premium Quality Diagonal Cutting Pliers for Precision Work by Mike Phillips

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good side cutter for side pliers

**Edit after a few months** I had to order a replacement set of these pliers. I cut a live wire and he scraped the shavings off one of the cutting blades. All my fault. The well-insulated handle did the trick and I didn't feel a thing. The lifetime warranty does not cover misuse (or stupidity). I liked the wire cutters so much that I ordered another pair.** Original review **These wire cutters are good. They are comfortable to hold and cut very well. I am testing the wire cutters to see if they can cut hair easily, but this one can. Pass Through Wire - I used them on the 10-2 wire and they cut right through it. The torque also makes them suitable for cutting welded wire fences (yes, I abuse my wire cutters regularly). The design of the handle is not very convenient for left-handers. It's not a problem for me because I'm right-handed, but I had to cut with my left hand and the molding makes it uncomfortable. Overall they are great and I would recommend them to anyone who is not left handed.

Pros
  • Hand tools
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
