PIERGIACOMIPG-TRE03NB Flush Cut Side Cutter 138mm

Picked this up to cut cable ties cleanly and it did the job perfectly. Very sharp and easy to apply pressure for it to do the job. A little on the small side for bigger hands but perfectly fine for almost everyone. Quality is pretty decent for the price and it won't break apart after extensive use. Only thing is that the jaws will remain open with no locking mechanism so I'd advise storing it a bit safer than other similarly sized tools just in case.

These clippers are the workhorse of my hobby. They may not be the absolute pinnacle of cutting tech, but they can certainly make a nice clean cut, the blades line up well and they take a while to go blunt, so they're certainly the best value for money.My very first pair is even still going after a few years, and they're tough enough that I use them for trimming 3d print supports, 3-4mm plastic/resin and even small grade wire without completely trashing them.The new pairs are capable of making very smooth cuts without tearing, nearly on par with my Tamiya 74035 nippers which cost about 4 times the price. The only thing with these is they're not as narrow profiled and can't get in the tiny gaps some of the Japanese micro nipper designs like Tamiya can.100% recommend

Outstanding snips for the price, if you have been thinking about Knipex - Stop - just give these a go, I think you will be very surprised at just how sharp they are. I use them for installing coils in vaping products.

Difficult to review these side cutters - they are extremely good value, well made and functionally fine, but, I don't really like them.. I have a (old and very tired) pair of Lindstrom cutters which are just fab, but mine are knackered so was hoping to replace with these Piergiacomi ones. I don't know whether it's just because I am very used to the Lindstrom cutters but the Piergiacomi are just, well, clunky and feel awkward in comparison. This is probably unfair: you would probably be perfectly pleased with these if they are your first pair, or your are upgrading from something cheap and cheerful - they really are fine! but for me I think I need to bite the bullet and fork out for another pair of (eyewateringly expensive!) Lindstroms, and donate these Piergiacomis to a colleague..

Really great cutters for the price, I build and sell Coils and needed a reliable pair of snips for daily use. I reaearched a lot and was told that knipex were the best. I decided that I would give these a chance and theu did not disappoint.I have used these daily for 3 months snipping 24ga wire and also snipping fused c l aptons which are alot thicker and more close to the limits stated. They have handled it fine altho I do feel the blades could close cleaner at times. I have still gave a 5 star review due to the cofart and action.on these snips and I am about to buy another set for when these eventually snap.They are also PERFECT for cutting legs after installing coils into a RDA they cut clean even when just using the tips.I should probably be using a heavyer duty pair of snips for cutting 24,ga fused claptons but I love the weight, comfort and ease of use these snips have.I am glad I went with these and I can buy 4 / 5 pairs of these for the price of the knipex. If they last double what they have I am happy to buy them regularly.

Ok

I basically bought these for cutting cable ties flush and it does the job perfectly.

Using this for cutting zip ties and giving them a flush cut. Great pair of cutters that are well made and reasonably priced.
