This review is from: Wiss M6R MetalMaster 1-1/4-Inch Cut Capacity 9-1/4-Inch Left and Straight Cut Offset Snip (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought these for work. Most of the time I use aviation snips to cut 016 and 020 aluminum sheets. The main problem that I have with the Wiss offsets is that the nut which helps hold the blades together, continually loosens off. This causes the metal to curl between the blades, leaving an undesired "lip". In some cases, this causes the blades to not cut at all (during precise/short cuts).Another issue is that from new, the spring binds and does not offer a smooth cutting action. Sometimes the blades do not fully close because of the binding. I do like the non-offset Wiss snips, but I find them more awkward to use. If you are interested in offsets, I'd recommend Midwest. Fellow workers swear by the Ridgid offsets (actually produced by Midwest). I have not used Klenk snips, but I have used Malco offsets, which share a similar design. I prefer the Midwest offsets over the Malco. |
