Review on Klein Tools D2000-49 9-Inch Yellow Diagonal Cutting Pliers 🔧 with Heavy-Duty Cutting Knives, Short Jaws and Dual Material Grips by John Pound

This is a professional tool. I had to cut hundreds of round shank nails, construction staples, various screws and other fasteners. Some of them were hidden under hardboard. These cutters are 9 inches longer than any competitor. This gives them more reach and more leverage. The cutting edges are indeed very well hardened. After hundreds of cuts, none of the cutting blades had the slightest ringing left. Thanks to the blue plastic on the handles, the soft-lined tool sits comfortably in the hand and is easy to use. They're a bit more expensive, but if you're looking for a professional job that does what it's supposed to do, then you've come to the right place.
