KNIPEX Tools - Electronics Super Knips, INOX Steel, Multi-Component (7803125), 5-Inch

Finally a true, flush cutting, snip for soft wire. I build scale models and needed a flush cutter for soft wire and tubing. I've tried many cheap ones that didn't work. These KNIPEX are modestly priced around $30 and are worth every penny. The photos show .8mm brass tubing, which is the largest I will cut with these. One picture shows a cut using the KNIPEX, the other using a cheaper brand. The cut was flush and had minimal pinching of the tube--the hole was still open using the KNIPEX. Using my other set (orange handle in picture), the cut wasn't flush and the hole was almost pinched shut. For the small copper wires I use (the largest is 22 gage) these are excellent.

I work all day every day under a microscope doing board modifications and assembling micro electronics. The Knipex Super Knips are super sharp, and are easily able to trim precisely, accurately and cleanly. They are an essential part of my tool kit. Although the two cutting edges don't line up precisely, as pointed out by other revieweres, that doesn't in any way impede their functioning - and results count. I've never had a better set of flush cutters.

work very well for soft wire and zip ties used it on small diameter stainless wire and damage the cutting edge slightly very good for cutting alloy sump plug washers offwould buy again
