But I already have a "Klein Insulated High Leverage Cable Cutter" that is of comparable length (at 245mm) and is really handy for chomping through copper stuff. But not to be used on SWA or ACSR (aluminium conductor steel-reinforced, which I am very unlikely ever to meet).

They claim it will cut 2/0 AWG (67mm^2) soft drawn copper, but I suspect you need gorilla hands to do that, I found 35mm really is a two-handed job, but I am not exactly Mr Universe.

One of the ratchet or hydraulic cutters that could do SWA to ~20mm diamter would be handy for me, but even that is a bit difficult to justify over the hacksaw for the few occasions I need it.

I have some 300mm ratchet crimpers for sale, no good for swa though!

We have something similar and it cuts SWA perfectly. No good on fencing wire though!

I’ll stick to my trusty klauk cutters then lol. With 400mm g head hydraulic crimpers although they are heavy.
