Review on πŸ”§ 8-Inch Wire Cutter: Lineman Pliers & Combination Pliers Heavy Duty - Chrome Nickel Steel, Durable Side Wire Cutter with Leverage - Anti-drop Handle by Joe Griggs

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Compact, durable and comfortable to use

These are strong yet compact pliers. It can easily twist a pair of 12 or 14 gauge wires together, or three in a pinch, and if those wires require some care you can easily cut the wires with a cutter. Many other pliers can handle more or thicker wire, but they are larger and bulkier. That makes them less than ideal, but they forgo that compromise and add grippy handles to boot. As simple as it is, many pliers fail because of stiff or clumsy hinges, but no problem here either. FWIW, I got these as a side review but I liked them so much that I ended up buying some more tongs to finish off the look of the set.

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
