Lifegoo Professional Flush Cutter Wire Side, 5 inch Cable Cutters Wire Steel Cutting Nippers Perfect for Electrical Jewelry Processing ect - Black …

In general I use flush cutters a lot, so much so that I wear them out. when they get dull or get dents in the cutting edges I simply sharpen them by gently holding them up to a belt or disc sander for a moment. This makes them like new again!I can resharpen the cutters 4 or 5 times before having to throw them out.These Lifegoo cutters are a bit heavier duty than other cheap flush cutters. the pivot joint is larger than most and the steel is a bit thicker making them feel more solid and also more comfortable to use.By the way, I don't use forged, heavy duty cutters just because they're too heavy and uncomfortable and also it seems to take too long to pick them up and get them situated in my hand.

I had purchased these to replace a pair of flush cutters which I'd gotten in a really cheap kit. The steel on the previous set had rolled over twice on me while cutting 12G half-round wire and I relegated them to light duty after re-filing the edges.These worked admirably for a few days. My jewelry tools almost all see daily use as it's how I wind down. They made short work of the dead soft 12G wire I've been making rings and bracelets out of.However, I made the mistake of using the very tip to cut a few centimeters of wire off the end of a cut that had been a bit rough and one edge of the tip shattered. I honestly didn't even notice at the time, the piece is probably sitting in my "coated scrap" bucket.I guess I expected a bit much for a cheap pair. For most people these will be fine, there are no signs of edge deformation and they still function just fine. The spring joint is REALLY nice compared to the usual box spring affairs and I'll be keeping them for lighter gauges.You'll need to go a bit bigger to have something which reliably cuts thick wires however.

I do not remember this purchase... probably did buy it. Never had a lousy diagonal flush cutter so i will give 3s if i must give something. What i detest is being pressed by a vendor a review. That is not appropriate.Lifegoo... please shut up and go awayAlsoYour prompt for this review (of an OLD purchase) required +1 before my ohine number before i could sign in... claiming that 10 digits was an incorrect phone number.That was stressful and this review is your reward

These perform exactly how I needed them to. I uses these to cut kanthal and stainless steel wires for vaping. These work great for that and I got them instead of other cheaper wire cutters because of the assisted opening and the fact that there plane black. Lol it matches my coil building kit I've made. Anyways there still sharp about 5 bulids later. I use them to cut multiple wires twisted together -- they definitely hold up better than the fingernail clippers I used before.

I had them for a week total, I bought them specifically to cut zip-ties flush but trying on a .25" wide plastic zip-tie for the first time proofed it was too much duty for these little snips and broke off an entire blade. Oh well lessons learned!

Much better than the micro cutters I've been getting from Harbor Freight. Smooth action on cut as well as return. Leaves nice flat cut ends on wires and components. But even though the description says "Cable Cutting" and "Steel Cutting", I wouldn't cut anything other than copper wire (<=18ga) and electronic component leads.

Bought these to snip off the little tabs left when removing dies for paper crafting from each other. They do OK. Not the sharpest but for the price that's kind of what I expected. Have used them several times and they still seem to be holding their edge. I don't anticipate them lasting forever but for now it's better than spending the big bucks for a pair.

They worked great the first time I used them. The second time I used them for jewelry making they broke.
