I taught metal shop for years and have used just about every type of snip you could imagine. These are, by far, my favorite snips I have used. These are now my go-to snip in my tool box. The ergonomics of the handles are perfect and I can cut all day without getting a blister like my other snips. I’ve cut sheet copper, plastic decorative ceiling tile, and trim-roll aluminum with these and they worked great on all three different materials. The only thing they didn’t work well on so far was the galvanized ceiling grid track. I know I should have just used a saw, but I just wanted to see how they would do since they seem to work on anything. I think a shorter version of this snip would have had enough mechanical advantage to chop through the grid. Maybe that’s my next tool purchase.

Nice cutters. And the locking tab is pretty nice and not cheap like other brands

All good. Exactly what I needed for long cuts in duct metal or aluminum sheet metal. Avoids the strain when hitting seams/joints when using long “tin snips” I had used for long cuts before. This pair just keeps on cutting with no issues.

This product is well built and long life cutting ability and with the lifetime warranty you can not go wrong and built by a company that has a great long time reputation for good products you can not beat it. I use these to cut mild gauge screen to keep birds out and with the long blade and long handles it helps not to tear up my hands as I have had in the past with other brands. These would be of great addtion to any welder or mild steel person that needs to cut mild gauged steel or even home projects.

This is not the first pair of “tin snips” I’ve ever bought, as I own a few already, but it is by far the best. These Milwaukee snips are very well-made and well-designed aviation snips that were just what I needed to trim some metal panels for my shed roof repair.Cutting metal roof panels is tricky to do by hand, but not with these snips, which make it a snap. I especially like that these aviation snips have a 3″ long cutting blade, a 45 degree offset and even the knuckle joint does not get in the way of your cutting. I also like the design of the lock on the snips, located between the handles, which keep them safe if you have kids around the house. These are built to last too, and have a 5 year limited warranty.

When you want that extra inch these can give it to you. These jaws are quite a bit longer than others I have used. The extra lengths makes for a great cut. I do a bunch of straight cuts and this makes them easier to achieve. The grips are comfortable and conform comfortably to the hand. There is a lock that keeps the blades closed for storage which is conveniently moved with the thumb.All in all this a quality metal shear.
