I have the smaller pair of these and they're excellent.

And now you've made me buy another pair of cutters...

At least you'll put them to some use.

Have these in 210mm, which are excellent and get occasional use. It seems I now also have a 240mm pair, for no reason other than the cheap link from this thread ?‍♂️
 
I too have the 210mm version and they are excellent. I also have a little difficulty with exerting a lot of pressure with my old, tired hands, and these slice most cables I use with ease. For big stuff I have a set of Felco bolt cutters...they are great, but don't fit in my tool belt...
they also weigh about 3 kilos.
 
got exactly same. OK for cutting SWA up to 6mm. cost about ÂŁ65 .funny but company i worked for at the time had a policy of if you were at wholesalers and wanted a tool, ring base and get an order nimber. company paid, then deducted from wages. they made me redundant 2 weeks later, before the invoice was settled. so i got them for nowt. easier than nicking for a dedicated follower of fashion Anfield
 
3 sold now! You should take commission Dusty.

They look like shears. Are they? Great for tails if so.

I have used them and they cut through thick singles like butter , just very awkward to use in one hand unless you have 6 inch fingers...
I probably should have got the smaller 200mm version instead.
but either way for 16 quid will keep them as manglers and and for chomping meter tails etc
 
Dont joke , my dad uses his old ck side cutters to cut his toenails...

seriously
so do I. what's wrong with that? tried the proper nail clippers and broke 2 of them on my bigtoe nails.
