Hi, I'm new to this forum and trade as DF Electrics - Small Job Specialist based in Ellastone, near Ashbourne, Derbyshire.
I'm now back on the tools at nearly 60 after my retail business of 10 years was killed off by lockdowns. I thought I would hate it but, you know, I love my job!

Anyway, having lost my lovely CK VDE side cutters recently (probably up in someone's loft space) I thought I'd jump on Amazonia to find a replacement pair.

Then this image came up! I have so many questions! How wrong can one image be?

In the end, I bought these and, so far so good, they are great side cutters and I highly recommend them.

What I can see, apart from the questionable amount of wires….

They won’t get enough leverage, and very sore knuckle, closing those handles….

There is another pair of cutters approaching from the bottom right of the picture… what are they heading for?
 
I left my NWS cutters on a job a while ago and haven't been back to fidn them yet. I ended up buying some CK cutters form the wholesalers but honestly much prefer my old NWS cutters.
