Knipex X-Cut (English)

[@Luzt.]

I like Knipex very much. I'm tooled up with Knipex, Wera, Wiha and I've tested them all. When it comes to side cutters the real best are NWS 200mm side cutters. They are compact, lightweight, sharper than Knipex and will cut a wire/nylon wrap on a flat surface (e.g. on a thick cable, which can hardly be done with Knipex).

Doesn't cutting m4 machine screws damage the cutting jaws or misalign the box joint over time? It would be great to buy long m4 screws and then cut them to size when you need to mount light fixtures on ceilings which have been plastered thick over the years.

Hi there, thanks a lot your question. We will check this and get back to you ASAP!

Hi FoodOnCrack, it is definitely possible to cut M4 screws. However, this of course requires appropriate hand force. As with any mechanically loaded component, it can show signs of wear over time. However, this should take some time, depending on the "regularity" in which you cut. So far, however, we personally have not heard that the X-Cut develops play. We hope this helps.

@@KNIPEXofficial definitely going to order one if I need to. Unfortunately I needed pliers for work but our dealer didn't carry one. Love all your products, especially the electrical installation pliers, they're life changing.
