## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellent cutters
*by K***! on 7 January 2025*

I must own about ten pairs of knipex pliers, I was converted the moment I tried a pair of their cobra grips and was blown away with the performance, These diagonal cutters are of the same high quality as every other tool I own from them. The cutting blades are precise enough that I can cut packing tape with them. The tool is surprisingly heavy in the handles but they dont flex, I particularly like the composite grips which take a battering and are more comfortable for repeated use. negatives? I genuinely cannot find any if you dont mind the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Knipex Diagonal Cutter premium quality product.

This time Idecided to test world renowned Knipex brand and I am absolutely delighted with the quality of this Diagonal Cutter.It is sharp and cuts accurately. The grip is soft and ergonomic as well as non slippery. I am very impressed with knipex and will recommend it even for DIY people like myself to invest in quality tools that will last a life time.
