Klein Tools 2100-8 Free-Fall Electrician Snips, Made in USA, 6.25-Inch Stainless Steel Scissors with Stripping Notches, Fully Serrated Blade, Extended Handle, Electrical and Heavy-Duty Applications

I've owned 3 and lost a few pairs (walked off or lost) of these scissors. I like the extended handle, makes it easy to shear through hard items.The insulation on the one side is nice if you have to try to cut harder items.They're great in my experience, basically bombproof scissors.Prior versions, I've cut through cable outside of spec and almost everything I need cut short of haircuts or food.They kept working, only needing a tightening of the hinge screw and light oil to maintain finish. Even my first pair from 20 years ago worked fine until lost.Maybe because they're new and not been used for wire outside of specification, however, they seem better than prior versions.They've still got the nice easy to close scissor action, cuts through wire and other softer materials with some ease.I'll update if they ever fail or do anything besides cut every (reasonable) item I try to put through their blades, with smooth tight action.

Excellent. Works as intended.

This is really an amazing little pair of scissors, now a key tool in my toolbox. I restore antique radios, and I find these perfect for working in tight places. I’ve been snipping away for months now and still no issues with sharpness.The scissors come with little notches on the side for wire stripping. Frankly I haven’t found those useful…a stripping tool or a razor blade work fine. But obviously that’s not why I bought them.

Saw these mentioned on an EDC site and thought I would give them a try...truly awesome scissors. Very thick and tough blades with wire strippers built right in. Quality all the way...HIGHLY recommended!I haven't tried cutting metal, but honestly I think these would cut just about anything with a nice clean edge...just amazing!

I've purchased three of these scissors now - just because I wanted a pair in my office, in my truck, and now for the wife....Great quality scissors at a decent price. Very sharp and a nice compact - but not too small - size to use. I don't do much electrical work with them, but for shop/every day scissor use these are the best.

I'm not an electrician or telephone repair guy, but my friend, who introduced me to these, is. He gave me a pair of his that was beginning to dull, so he could order a new one. That old pair of snips will still cut a penny in half. If you order a brand new pair, they are razor sharp, and will cut ANYthing. I've been using them as scissors, and so far, having not cut wire with them, the seem as though they will hold up indefinitely. The are small enough to fit in little pockets in my backpack or glove box, my tackle box, etc. I love them. There's really nothing like them. I use them all the time, and I'm not even using them for their intended purpose.Of all the dumb things you can do with them, we were testing the old pair out and pruning a bush outside my front door with them, and the moisture did cause discoloration on the backs of the scissor blades (obviously, they weren't made for this), but hasn't affected the cutting power of that pair at all. They will still cut paper perfectly without tearing, even newspaper or paper towels, probably because they are screwed together so tightly that the cutting edges stay in perfect contact.Anyway. They'll cut anything, and last forever. I'm sure they're amazing for their intended purpose too.

Pro-Cuts precisely (For the first couple of months of use)-Heavy duty shears (very durable)-Sharp and strong (can cut wire, and tricky material such as dyneema)-ambidextrous-still sharp after year of use.Con-Horrible maintenance capabilities. (The metal of the flathead screw is very soft and strips easily. It slips when attempting to tighten, and tightening is finicky: too tight and the scissor becomes unusable, but loosens so easily the shears wont even cut.-Frequent use affects the tips ability to cut fine threads. Precision cuts go out the window within a mere month of use.

I love it ❤️💯💯💯🙂🙂
