CK ratchet cable cutters

[jcarlie]

Alright lads,just wondering if anyone has a pair of these CK ratchet cable cutters,spotted them in the wholesalers the other day,lad behind the counter said that they cut straight through swa and everything,he quoted me about 120 quid for a set less my discount,anyone got a set? are they the muts nuts as he says or is he trying to pull my pants down?

Cheers lads

I've got a pair of them^^^, they say NOT to cut SWA with them though as they are only meant for copper conductors.

Must admit they fly through anything upto a 10mm 3c SWA though.

I've got the Knipex ones too they go through swa like a knife through butter, haven't noticed any adverse affects on the blades. I also use them for 25mm tails and bigger saves your hands from straining.
