I was lucky enough to find these

Othere cutters that cost that much money to do a simple job like this Revain Basics tool. Get it when you need a quality knife.

Pros
  • Certified GOLS
Cons
  • Work Speed

Good price for side cutters

Good quality for the money. The connection is a bit stiff, but will likely loosen with use. So far I haven't cut anything too thick, but so far it cuts easily and cleanly. Jaws well aligned.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Very expensive

More bang for your buck

They do everything the expensive ones do. As good as $30 plus the. Electronics store owner and still in business. I think they are worth it.

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

They cut 6/0 hooks without denting the cutting edges

I needed wire cutters in my boat to cut hooks, lines and other things. The hooks were the main problem. Cheaper wire cutters tend to deform their blades when cutting large (2/0 to 6/0) hooks. They hold well, are comfortable to hold and the long handles offer plenty of leverage.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Very sturdy, poor edge retention

I've been using them as an alarm technician for less than a year. I mainly deal with 16-22 gauge wire so they are not very thick. The cutting edges wore out much quicker than other cutters I've had in the past. I also had to constantly grease the hinges, otherwise they were quite stiff, which was annoying when I had to work with one hand on the stairs in the dark. My tip: you should spend twice as much to get ten times the quality and durability.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
