Its blade length is 5" / 127 mm, and cutting thickness can reach 1/4" maximum, 3/16" thickness at full size. Hope it helps! Customer Support. Jennifer. **Q: The description states that it has an extended handle. Did I not have one included? My handle is @ 12" and needs to be longer.** A: The EVOR Hand Plate Shear 5" blade is 12in long, and it comes in the package: 1 x 12 Inch Manual Metal Shear Cutter 1 x Manual **Q: Will this shear cut up car tires?** A: I mean it could probably cut up a bunch of random things. I don't see why car tires would be an exception, although you'd first have to already have cut the tire up into small enough pieces to cut it with the shear. You could cut up Barbie Dolls or JI Joe figures or slice Pizza with it... but it is designed for cutting metal. The problem would be that by using the blade for other non-intended purposes you could dull the blade, or get a bunch of residue all over it that you'd have to clean off so it would properly cut metal again. But you know... Do what you want and cut up all the things! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well made *by B***P on January 14, 2026* Has worked extremely well for cutting sheet metal. Cuts very precisely without distortion. I would recommend this to save time and messy cutting blades. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just wish I'd bought it sooner *by A***A on February 9, 2026* Well built it cuts amazing the tool save's my hand from using hand shears ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Value for the Money - But check for any cracks before keeping *by U***R on February 7, 2024* Shears are pretty simple tools, nonetheless this one is executed well. Assembly takes about five minutes (just several bolts to make the handle) and that's about it. Tips: -like with all big cast iron tools, these ship with bolts not super tightened etc. to prevent cracking. So make sure the bolts are tight, it will help keep the cuts straight when using on thicker materiale. -Make sure to use the hold-down part (the black thing that holds the metal flat) - it will help keep the metal where it needs to be, and not allow it to "rise" and make the cut less straight. -Several smaller cuts are always better than one big one, if you can do such. also, cutting closer to the throat / inside will result in less deviation, depending on what you are cutting. Also, as with any standard tool check if there are any cracks in the cast iron. This is rare, but these boxes get thrown around a lot, and sometimes there might be a crack you might find after it's too late. ## Frequently Bought Together - VEVOR Hand Plate Shear 12",Manual Metal Cutter Cutting Thickness1/4 Inch Max,Metal Steel Frame Snip Machine Benchtop 1/2 Inch Rod,for Shear Carbon Steel Plates and Bars - KASTFORCE KF5014 Sheet Metal Shear Throatless Rotary Hand Shear 16Ga / 1.5mm Capacity - KASTFORCE KF5002 Steel Bending Brake Sheet Metal Bender Metal Folder 28 Inch (730mm) 18 Ga (1.2mm) Capacity --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/218223110-vevor-hand-plate-shear-12-manual-metal-cutter-cutting-thickness1](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/218223110-vevor-hand-plate-shear-12-manual-metal-cutter-cutting-thickness1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
