Strong pliers. It cuts mesh, wires and cables easily. I use it only on de-energized circuits since it does not have the 1000V certification. For live work, only the red/yellow Knipex ones.

I have the same model, bought in 2004 (22 years), I have cut everything, even steel screws, and it hasn't suffered any damage!!!! This so-called Knipex that I received, when cutting a piece of wire, its tip broke!!!!! If there were bananas instead of stars, I would give bananas. The 30€ I paid was a waste.

very high quality tool this side cutter, this size serves me very well, I am satisfied, I would recommend someone to buy it.

Cuts well but it's not ergonomically what I expected, it's also expensive so... it's the best.

I have had this angle grinder for years. It is a bit expensive but sturdy.

My father bought it when I was 2.5 years old. It lasted many years in my father's hands and just as many in mine. After 32 years of daily use, it broke... He got his money's worth. I have already ordered a new one, hoping it will be of the same quality as the previous one. Thank you, Knipex

First test today, I stripped about 10 meters of old cables. It is quite handy in the hand and cuts well. A nice addition to my tools.

I also have the 200mm one, but it doesn’t cut steel wire easily, unlike the cutters that even the smaller Knipex pliers have. The pliers should be harder to cut with, and this one here, which is a more specialized tool for cutting wire and also has a longer handle, should cut more easily; however, I’m getting the opposite results!! Another reason I gave 3 stars, while for all the other tools from this company I’ve given 5. Lately, where it was by far the best company, I see that it has taken a dive in quality. And the finish is no longer the same, something that, beyond the visual aspect, on some tools takes even a little away from the precision and performance of the tool. I would suggest that if you’re going to buy Knipex, don’t order online, but go to small old shops that don’t have much customer traffic, and you’ll surely find some old pieces! The old Knipex are generally not made again! They were by far the most efficient and highest-quality tools out there!!

Very good cutter, from a reputable company.
If you want something even better, choose the 7006160 or 7006180 which are chrome plated.

I accidentally stumbled upon it on this website while searching for a tool and I decided to comment. I have had it for ten years, I use it professionally in water, etc. It has become disgusting, I'm tired of seeing it, it hasn't suffered any damage, I have never used WD on it, and it cuts as if I bought it yesterday

The best cutter I've ever had. By far. From the first day, it's extremely soft on the joint, to the point where you think it's unscrewed. It cuts perfectly with really minimal force. It looks like a tool for a lifetime.

Very good cutter but I recommend the stainless steel ones from KNIPEX. After all, you buy them once and your son also has them
