Too large. Very difficult to use.

I've been using metal shears for 50 years, but these shears are ridiculously difficult to use. If you have hands twice my size you might be able to control these suckers, but to me they're mostly a waste of money. They are huge and strong!

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Disappear

Excellent quality and sharpness

I bought these to cut WeatherTech floor mats that I transferred from my 2010 Honda to my 2015 Honda. They cut this material amazingly. They also seem very durable so I left them in my car in case I need to protect myself haha. No, but I have nowhere else to store it, so it lives in my trunk.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • No instructions

Powerful tin snips at a low price

That was a bargain: tin snips in professional quality at a low price. You could double the price and it would still be a good deal. My only complaint is that the pair I received have already been used. Some clown used it once, sent it back, and then this seller repackaged it and sent it to me.

Pros
  • Simple design
Cons
  • Updates

Excellent shots! on wire cutters and scissors

I use them to cut fabric, plastic, branches and anything else that requires a bigger cut than scissors. It's fabulous! They cut everything and you can cut slowly and fairly cleanly once you get used to their size. A really useful tool in the garden, yard, shop, anywhere. These are strong and tough. One of the best tools to always have on hand.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Compatibility

Excellent product! - Power and hand tools

Wow! What a pair! Effortlessly cuts upholstery, fabric, carpet and solar material. It has become one of my most useful tools. I would recommend this to everyone. If I could give ten stars I would. Update: It also cuts vinyl like butter! It's still sharp after everything I've cut. Addendum No. 2. Sheet metal cuts well, I've never had to sharpen it. I wish all my tools were as useful as this one.

Pros
  • Wire cutters and scissors
Cons
  • Out of fashion

They're weirdly big, but work really well.

I read another review that mentioned they are big. I have big hands with long thin fingers, I laughed out loud when I took them out of the box. They are extremely large, but they work so well. I use them to cut galvanized steel roofing panels, they cut through it like a hot knife in the snow. You may have trouble using them unless you have big hands. They look durable and are made of high quality material. I have big hands so I can use them well, I like it but it always makes people laugh when…

Pros
  • hand tools
Cons
  • disappear

Insanely strong for wire cutters and shears

These tin snips are exactly what you think they are and maybe more. I bought these to cut a discontinued metal credit card. If you don't know how hard it is to cut through one of them, consider cutting through a barbed wire fence, but it's harder. Everything I threw at him barely left a dent. Yes, I had the opportunity to give it to the bank, but unfortunately there was no one around me who would accept what I had to get rid of. Long story short, I did a little research online and figured out…

Pros
  • Power and hand tools
Cons
  • unreliable
