About Channellock Cable Cutter, Shear Cut, 9-1/2 In
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
73% praised for its exceptional build quality, while 27% found it lacking in certain areas
I feel that the steel jaws of the pliers are softer than they should be for any commercial cutting tool.
I noticed that the cable cutters accumulated rust quickly compared to previous cable cutters, which has affected the build quality.

81% praised for its exceptional cutting performance, while 19% found it struggled with thick wires
I bought cutters that handle every size up to 2/0 copper cable.
I tried to cut the 1/4 inch copper hydraulic line with the pliers, but they only squashed it.
75% found it comfortable to hold and use, but 25% experienced hand fatigue
I prefer the grip and blade geometry of the Channellock cutters over my previous pair of Greenlee Rabbit Ear cable cutters. It's recommended to keep the cutters lightly oiled to prevent rust in a humid work locker.
The long handles of the pliers work great to apply leverage to the cables while cutting.
I am disappointed with the quality of the side-cutting pliers. They are the worst quality ever and made in USA.
