I like this cutter, typically I buy USA and German tools because of quality and hate Chinese products and never purchase one made in China.

Purchased this based upon the positive reviews I read that others had previously posted. I wasn’t disappointed. The tool worked exceptionally well and cutting chain link was effortless. Cost a little more, but well worth the extra investment.

This is one of the easiest two thumbs up I could give. The Knipex Cobolt bolt cutters, despite being 10” long, seem only to be limited by the capacity of their jaws, which can accommodate up to 1/4” thick objects. Remarkably, they achieve up to 40x leverage while delivering a straight cutting force centered on their target through an ingenious hinged mechanism allowing both blades to pivot up and clamp down in concert, cutting anything from a piece of paper up to 4.2mm piano wire, 1/4 bolts and rods, etc.These bolt cutters are possibly unmatched in quality and performance in their size range, and come with a lifetime warranty from a respected brand. Therefore I feel they are a solid value and well worth the price range at Home Depot.

Best bolt cutter ever!

Exactly as advertised. Excellent cutting strength with minimal force. The grips are more comfortable than your standard Knipex pliers. Though I could imagine them being uncomfortable if you have small hands.

The 2 fulcrum design somehow makes thick wire feel like soft cheese. If you use wire cutters a lot, this will save your wrists and hands.

I use these to cut welding filler rod and they are just right for that purpose. These are a little pricey but are made well and are of the highest quality. I would purchase again and would recommend Knipex if you are looking for quality tools.
