Bahco snips the best?

[mister105]

Ive used bahco snips for years now and they are te best in my opinion what do you guys think?

 

[telectrix]

i use CK myself. not tried the bahco. bought a pair of the " ergonomically designed dog's nuts CK ones, them with an angled head. load of pig manure.

I have used bacho for 5 years now, after trying a few before, I think they are the best.

I'm trying to figure out if that means they're good or bad.

My preference is CK Redline VDE Combicutter 3.

havent usecd snips since the crap toolkit we used when i was in the army college. I use the cutters below. Will cut and strip upto about 35mm easily. i only use snips for cable ties, and then i use the carpenters pincers.

Knipex.

Agreed

I use one of these mostly for cutting and stripping cables.


I only seem to use snips for cutting cable ties and cutting in close to other cables.

I've got these.Took a bit of getting used to but like them now!

 

[vernam616]

Bacho snips all the way, 1000v tested ones though(full orange handle)

Not the orange and black handle ergo spring loaded things

Prefer croppers, but would like to try them that cut 3.5s as well

Hi Marvo, I think you'll find that it's both in the one statement. i.e. 'dog's nuts' usually refers to something being perfect etc. 'pig manure' means that they're not.
So they were supposed to be but in reality they're not. as with a load of things in life.

Cheers,
Lofty.

Knipex all the way for me, only used Bahco pipe grips and didn't like them at all so not a big fan of the brand because of that.
