This review is from: Malco M2006 MAX2000 Bulldog 1-1/4-Inch Cut Capacity 10-3/4-Inch Left Cut Offset Aviation Snip (Tools & Home Improvement)

When I bought a pair of these about 5 years ago, I hesitated at the price. I had been wearing out the standard snips ($12-18) available at the big box and hardware stores, in a year or so. I wanted something better. At the time these Malco's were $30+, but I tried them anyway.

End of story is: I will only buy these malco max2000 av snips anymore. They are sharp, they cut better, easier and whoa, do they last longer. I think they are a little larger in size but are still able to maneuver tight turns, the handle lock works well, I do some cutting of stainless steel also with these. Also, I'm not sure why, but these snips will start a cut at a very slight angle to an edge in light gauge sheet metal, rather than roll the edge over and not initiate a cut like cheaper snips. Great snips.

These snips are excellent for all kinds of sheet metal. Since we do air duct cleaning, we need good snips that last a long time. I have had my pair personally since 2004 and they are still as sharp as the day I got them. We have tried all other brands such as Wiss and Midwest, but none compare to the Malco's!

This review is from: Malco M2006 MAX2000 Bulldog 1-1/4-Inch Cut Capacity 10-3/4-Inch Left Cut Offset Aviation Snip (Tools & Home Improvement)

I have been working for a seamless gutter company, full time, for the past 2 years. We do a lot of cutting of steel and aluminum along with angled mitre cuts through gutter. I have used other brands (Irwin, Wiss, ect.) because of the cost of snips. Because of the heavy use I put into them, I want the best snip that causes the least amount of stress to my hands. My conclusion, Malco snips offer that performance I demand because I am concerned about my body's longevity. If you are a professional that works around sheet metal daily then don't waste you time and money with other snips.
