IGAN-170 Wire Cutters, Precision Electronics Flush Cutter, One of the Strongest and Sharpest Side Cutting pliers with an Opening Spring, Ideal for Ultra-fine Cutting Needs.

Good value

I’ve been using these for electronics work and they’re easily some of the sharpest flush cutters I’ve owned. They make really clean cuts on small wires and component leads, which is exactly what I wanted for PCB work. They feel good in the hand and give you nice control when you’re trimming close to a board. I’ve been using them on softer metals like copper leads and small-ish gauge wire and they handle that perfectly. That said, these are definitely not meant for heavy-duty cutting. If you try to use them on thicker pins or harder metals (like some beefy controller board pins), you’re going to dull them out pretty quickly. Ask me how I know… As long as you use them for what they’re designed for, they’re fantastic. Just treat them like a precision tool, not a general-purpose cutter, and they should last you a good while.

These worked great, I really like them.

Excellent product. Preforms as advertised.

The blades chip if you cut stainless steel wire. Other than that they are good quality blades that would probably cut other softer metal.

Great quality and super sharp. Makes precision cuts as advertised

Great built quality on this cutter. I use for small wires and specially my zip ties. The grip is awesome non slip. Very comfortable to use for your small projects and hobbies. Always cut in the middle or the back so it wont snap or large metal objects.

Perfect for making jewelry

I bought these for use in scale model building, to remove model parts from their sprues with as little deformation to the surrounding plastic as possible. These, cutters are....too thick for my tastes, and although it gets the job done and does little deformation to the surrounding plastic, as little as can be with the thickness of these blades. I had hoped that they wre going to be thinner than they actually are, so in that regard they are a let down. however, they work, and they work well. so and you can do a lot worse than these one for sure! so all in all, I recommend these nippers, but if you are like me, and are extremely picky when it comes to hand tools, then you will be let down by these as well. they claim to be made of high quality steel, and to be honest, cuting plastic is never a hard thing for steel nioppers to do, but I was looking for a set with really thin nipping blade as to lessen deformation when cutting and these are not them. I will keep on looking, but these are my new nippers that are definitely better than the cheap chinese knock-off I had before. i use them all the time while modelling and truly cannot complain about their performance or quality, I just wanted something a little different. Like I said, there are many nippers on Amazon that are way worse than these ones, and they are better build than most nippers I have seen on Amazon too, so you would be hard pressed to find something better in the same price range, so I do recommend them and the seller as they arrived exactly when they were supposed to, the very next day, with Prime!!!

Can't believe it broke after trimming some 3d printer parts which were made of PLA. Ridiculous quality. Do not buy!!!

I make chained rosaries, so need approximately 60 little wires per unit, to string the beads. I use 22 gauge wire. These wire cutters are excellent. Because the blades are not recessed, you know exactly where you are cutting, which wastes a lot less wire. They are the sharpest wire cutters I have ever had. They make cutting wire seem like cutting butter! Excellent product! I would definitely buy again!!! I used them to cut hard memory wire and it dulled the blades. I ordered 2 to replace the one I broke. I love these!!!

Cuts very well, holds up. Jaws don’t open very far but work well for zip ties and such.

Feels solid and edges are sharp and inline. Cuts like hot knife through butter.
