Fluke Networks44300000 D-Snip Cable Scissors

if you haven't used lineman's shears or splicers snips or whatever you call them, they are not just scissors. they have a micro-serrated edge so when you cut copper wire it will grab the wire to allow you to cut even substantial gauge wire. short, strong blades give you great leverage so that you can use even the tip to clip wire or zip ties or whatever you can get the tip onto since it won't slip off. (shears really have great bite- most heavy duty snips or scissors will just slip off smooth round heavy wire.)HANDLING TIP: you don't hold them like scissors, you put the ergo loop with the flat side in your palm and a finger, usually the middle finger, through the round loop...there's videos out there. do do a cut, you squeeze you whole hand like making a fist. this allows you to put a lot of power into the cut. the ordinary lineman's shears that I was given when I started with the phone company didn't have that flat loop so they could be hard on the palm when you had to cut something beefy, so we would use gloves as long as you could get a finger through the loop. regardless of the design, the experienced splicers told me the standard splicer's shears were capable of cutting a penny in half. a penny is made of zinc, a LOT harder than copper, so that's quite a feat. (although I didn't doubt them, no one ever showed me that party trick.) I'm not saying you should try that with these shears but I believe these are forged steel and capable of any heavy cuts that an electrician or splicer would need to perform. I'm sure this model will hold a great serrated edge for years...I've had my original-design shears for 20 years and they still cut fine although I have to really crank on them to get them to cut heavy wire. these Fluke shear are SO much sharper and give me more leverage than my old shears, I'm glad I bought them. the ergo grip loop on them allows me to make heavy cuts without gloves on or herculean effort. it's a great design, especially for someone who will use them all day.

I wanted to try a different snip as our go to snaps, kept disappearing and they are the same ones all of our cabling guys use so it’s hard to tell if someone picked it up accidentally. So I bought these as my personal snaps and now they’ve hung around for longer than our traditional snips and they’re just as good perhaps even a little better with the rubberized handle.

Mi última duró más de 4 años de continuo uso hasta que la extravié, es uno de los equipos imprescindibles para mi trabajo, la recomiendo si quieres calidad, rendimiento y desempeño.

Thought they were like the yellow Klein scissors where u had more space to put your fingers but they weren’t that to me is the only issue other than that great product

Great quality. I use mine daily, so I usually replace them every 6-8 months.A little pricey.. used to be a lot cheaper for the same product. Not sure why it’s gone up so much?

Love this tool. I wish the handles would have been a little larger. Works great!

Been using these for quite awhile now, still sharp, and cuts with minimal effort - their short overall length had me questioning whether more effort would be needed to cut because of less mechanical advantage, but that worry was instantly resolved - these snips are very sharp, feel quite good as far as repeated use versus your hand, fatigue isn't an issue. Stripping individual Cat5/6/7 conductors using the notches helps in certain circumstances as well. All I can say is a little more money on tools like these really pays off.

These are the best 'D-snips' on the market as far as I'm concerned. I am partial flu products but it is because they last and last and last. I still have the first pair from my original kit I'm over 10 years ago. Still sturdy. If you know how to use them properly that rubber grip is AMAZING. I now have 6 pairs just so I can have a pair in each tool belt/toolbox.

Going for my second pair, no because they don’t last lol it’s when you lose them that you have to come back and order more. A must have for running wires!!!

Que puedo decir "Fluke" es garantía de calidad, Tienen buen filo, las muescas para pelar cable funcionan correctamente y los materiales de primera calidad.

Excelente se trabaja con mucha comodidad y

Basically the only tool I've used for 10 years of cable pulling. The long handle is for the palm of your hand so that you get better leverage. After about a year you may have to tighten the screw. I seem to buy a new pair every 2-3 years. Always worth it.Reviews saying the holes are too small don't know how to use these kind scissors.
