Knipex 95 05 155 (KC Tool): bit.ly/2LnF7vN
I love these! Best shears I've ever used by far. It cuts cables near the hinge with unbelievable ease and precision with a very satisfying noise.
Indeed! That's true.
I have one, but mine is an angled version. I think it's even better because of the ergonomics. Brilliant tool. Down side: the guard. It falls front it very easily.
I happen to find it accidentally on a physical store and bought it right away!
I started as an electrician and ended up in the low voltage field (access control/security). Since I started as an electrician I prefer using side cutters and don't care for scissors or snips at all. Can't stand to use regular Klein snips.
I bought these Knipex snips and LOVE them. Fantastic at stripping and cutting cat6 and the like. I would still buy these snips if they were in the $50 range. At $20 or so these are just fantastic. I personally love the handles, I think they're easy to use and very ergonomic, but if you're used to conventional scissors, I can see how it might take some getting used to.
They look like they are razor sharp and well made too.
I like them ok. Small & compact. The plastic holder cracked very soon, so wearing clipped to your belt is not going to work for long. But it does work well inside of a tool pouch pocket. Definitely worth $20 bucks.
the Facom 841A.3 is even better, with stripping function and ferrule krimping included. Very handy things
Check out the CK scissors. Really comfy grip. I bought 3 of them. One of my all time favorite tools.
As a low voltage electrician I use these all day every day they are far superior to the fluke d snips and the Klein drop snips
Nice coverage of the tool. Great work as usual. Thanks for providing this!
I have this tool, and I really like very much. I put lithium grease on the joint to make them smoother.
I have these. Very high quality, BUT as you indicate the handles are awkward as hell to use. I enjoy your videos.
Just got a pair for zip tie cutting.
I put up and take down around 100 zip ties a day at work so I needed something better than 7 inch long diagonal cutters that suck in my pocket
Hats off to you sir,
you do some very good reviews. thank you
They are rebranded but they are really good scissors. My Usag 207 E have exacly the same blades but different handles (I prefer simmetrical ones)
Lil Cap Are you sure they are the same blades? The Usag appear to have some external serrations on the top and bottom of the blades, the tang goes all the way around and they have crimping and stripping facilities.
@@mrbadger9920 sorry, I meant the 207 "D" model, not the "E", i was inattentive :D
If you are cutting into the copper conductor while stripping wires or damaging insulation while stripping multiconductor cable, that is a user problem not a tool problem.
Nice, my electricians shears are made by licota, what i like about them is that its got longer blades then other brands.
Somewhere I saw a set of Knipex sheers that they used to cut carbon fiber. I thought it was this set but not so sure anymore.
You might be onto something with the rebrand theory. These shears are the only Knipex tool I own that doesn't say "Knipex Germany" or "Made In Germany" somewhere on the tool itself. Either way they are a great pair of shears, I do Process Control Automation and these are my go to.
Look at the Knipex screwdrivers. They are made by Wera, and many are made in Czechia.
Según mi distribuidor se fabrican en Taiwan
I like that you can carry it on your belt. Good looking tool, great review man!

Thank you so much, you really help me out!
@Lane Salvatore Happy to help xD
Picked up a pair from KC tools. Looking forward to using them. Like the channel - sub'd
Good review! I have a pair of these (I think they are the same!) I like them and find them very useful, not to mention versatile!
I’ve been a residential electrician for 15 years. I’ve never seen anyone use scissors. What’s some advantages over other tools?
How is it comparing to eSHEARS - ALL-IN-ONE ELECTRICIAN’S SCISSORS from vampiretools?
I have a range of tools, depending on the job to hand. It's handy if you can find a single tool that performs all the operations. I have some notched wire cutters, really lust short scissors with a sharp "v" notch at the tip and a screw stop for adjusting the wire size. I can prepare a 40 pair cable in a few minutes, but it's impossible to tag terminate the wires. I have long nosed pliers with integral side cutter and slot stripper. But the stripper isn't adjustable and needs a couple of tries to break some insulation types and I have a pair of needle nosed that will tag terminate and part the wire with a flick of the wrist .... but they won't strip.
Somewhere out there is my ideal tool, but at 63 time is getting short. I aim to be somewhere warm collecting shells before much longer not stripping wire.
Thanks for great review. What do you think? Can you make fine clean cut in normal A4 paper with those? Im from Finland and carry normal scissors in my bag because sometimes I have to mark some boxes or panels so I need cut paper. That tool might replace those scissors for me. That cable cutter function and small size of tool is kind of nice.
You sound exactly like Badger from breaking bad
Would these do well for cutting hard green plastic strapping?
a self opening spring would make them a LOT easier to use ,, they are great on cable ties too
I have them and love the shears but am really not impressed by the sheath. For me the detent is pretty weak and belt clip doesn't feel solid.
I just received a pair of these but the package says they are made in Taiwan now.
Hmm. Just got them a week ago, still "made in Italy".
Badger, is that you???
Seriously I thought it was just me who thought that.

Why does it say on the package “made in Taiwan”?
Es MADE IN TAIWAN
Se fabrican en Taiwan no en Alemania
Google intercable f1 ... the best ones..🥇
absolutly i have 3 pairs of them we use them at work
They are made by the same company, AFAIK.
Doing reviews on tools you don’t know how to used
Glad you aren't.
