NWS fantastico sidecutters

Simonslimline · Apr 26, 2014

Just bought a pair of these, they seem very well made and cut with ease. Nice and comfortable as well.

Just posting up incase anyone is after new sidecutters, these are well worth a look.

Ive seen nws cutters before, are these new?

They do a whole range of hand tools, i am not sure how new to be honest. Decent though. Only ones i have seen before are the 6 in 1 supercutters.

Your right I was thinking of the 6 in one

One thing i have realised is they do not carry the VDE mark on them. the model below does however.... and they are the same design and name etc. I wonder if the insulation varies between them much.

Have a look at their cable cutters, brilliant piece of kit, will cut 25mm tails without any problems. Have to be on the ball if the kids are sniffing round the tool bag as they'll do themselves some damage if not careful.

What size are the cable cutters? I really like my 165 shears

They do a 160mm pair and a 210mm pair. The 210mm are brilliant, there are some good deals round because they have just changed the handle design. The old colours are a lot cheaper.
