Let me start by saying that everyone has personal preferences when it come to hand tools. I'm an electrician with medium sized hands and these fit and feel perfectly in mine. I own a number of Klein tools that I generally regard as the best in hand tools but for me these Irwin's feel better. I use these to cut and strip #10 and smaller wire. Above that I'll use my Klein cable cutters. I've used these for about three years at work and finally decided to buy some for home. Happy with my purchase, your mileage may vary.

I wanted an extra pair of these to keep in my toolbox. My other diagonal cutters seem to always be someplace else when I need them. These have a distinctive look so that's what drew me in. Once I started using them I really liked them. I'd recommend them.

Absolutely love these pliers. I recently decided to make toys for my chinchilla, so I went out and purchased a lot of wood and wire to string some wooden chew toys together. The wires I purchased aren't particularly thick, so I can't say how these fare with thicker wires... but with the thin wires I purchased, this plier cuts it like BUTTER. So effortlessly! I never thought I'd love a pair of pliers as much as I love these. Very sturdy and well-made. I've got these handy in my tool drawer.

I wanted a decent wire cutter for both electronics and craft types of wire. I already have a top-end cutter for memory wire, bolts and nails, etc., but it's 8" and is too large to use for fine trimming on small pieces.

I've read many reviews about economy wire cutters getting ruined because they weren't hardened, and once made that same mistake. This cutter is perfect for my smaller jobs and I have no doubts about durability. At only $10 I couldn't have done any better.

My only regret is that I didn't make sure that this cutter had a spring, didn't even give it any thought really, and it doesn't. I guess my thought was they all had springs. Live and learn. Maybe I can rig one.

I bought this mainly for wire cutting and zip ties. Zip ties have never really been an issue but I get so infuriated at wire cutters that don't cut...they just fold in the cutters and you have to pry the wire cutters open with a flathead. This is not an isolated incident. Anyhow, these really do the trick and cut very cleanly. Irwin is known to make great tools and this is no exception even at such a low price.

Nice pair of cutters. Work well and feel comfortable with the padded grips. Not a cheap pair like the ones you see at Lowes or Home Depot but well worth the price I paid. Would buy these again.

These looked like a high quality tool at the store. I bought mine from amazon. They are strong and durable. I don't have any fear of them breaking while I use them. They are not very sharp nor are they perfectly designed. The design problem I mentioned is because another pair I purchased would never open farther than my hand could , these actually slip out of my hand on occasion ( at least partially ) a more dramatic curve in the handle would help keep them in my medium sized hands better. The blade should be sharper as well.
I wish I hadn't lost that other pair. I can't seem to find that combination of handle size/design/blade size in any other side cutters.
Oh well the search continues.

I've been cutting through TwinAx, Coax and fiber non-stop since I got them. They're really not great for fiber since they don't shear but a little chewing and ripping action will get right through that Kevlar. Gets through Twinax/Coax like it's not even there.
