Most versatile tough scissors you will love.
Although sold as an electrical/electronics tool this scissors works for everything. It's especially good for cutting wires..of course but it's equally handy for cutting almost anything and it's heavy duty so you won't break it easily. It does have that one serrated blade for gripping wires when cutting but that doesn't interfere with cutting other materials just as easily. I have one in my fishing creel too :-)

Well worth the money
If you're wondering whether to get these or to save yourself half the cost and get a no-name brand from China, just get these. The difference is substantial. These are sharp and properly adjusted out of the box. They're made of good steel. They are solidly built and will be just as serviceable 50 yrs from now as they are today. But they will have to be sharpened once every few years, and if you don't intend to do that then I guess you're maybe better off with something disposable with plastic handles and stamped sheet metal blades.Tell you what. Buy these, and in a few years when they need to be sharpened you can sell them to me for half what you paid for them. That way you can enjoy a high quality pair of scissors for the cost of a cheap pair, and I can get heirloom quality at half price. I'll sharpen them up and give them as gifts to friends and family who like nice things. You know where to reach me.

Great Italian made tool
Great Italian made tool. Finger holes are a bit small I think I prefer the models with one thumb hole and the double finger holes.Only con really is the outer blades for sleeve removal are useless not even close to being even somewhat sharp. But use as snips is just great.

Should be in every tool box
My father was a linesman for the phone company and always had a pair of these scissors in his tool bag. Heck he had about a dozen of these small snips lying in various drawers throughout the house.I now understand why. These small scissors are the perfect size for most jobs and don't take up much space in the drawer or tool bag. They cut wire, plastic straps, rope and tape with ease. Quality is good and most pairs will last a lifetime.Everyone should have at least one pair.

Best snips on the market.
Best snips on the market. I've used them all. Klein has lifetime warranty, they need it. Maybe one out of ten Kleins will be this good. They are sharp and perfectly adjusted. Use daily now for 3 months and are still good as new. I go through at least 3 sets of kleins in a year, my supplier doesn't carry Wiss. These were the snips of choice by telephone workers for decades.

Best scissors
These are my go too for everything. I cut plants, paper, wires, string. Cuts just about everything and anything and they keep working like new. These are the only brand of scissors I have used for the past 15 years and have only had to replace them once. Good quality and value for the money
