Knipex it’s the best!
Solid side cutters, sharp durable comfy and easy moving. The price may be on the higher side but you pay for what you get! Great build quality and will last you a lifetime of proper use. With kit like this I swear by knipex, there hand tools are second to none and it’s well worth the initial investment

Nice cutter...odd dimensions
Good set of snips.. I ordered the 160mm size..170mm from bottom of handle to the tip which isn't the end of the world but I would have preferred the extra 10mm on the cutting blades instead of the handle... cutting blades are 22mm which is fine for snipping copper but you might struggle to cut anything bigger than, sheathed 3 core n earth 1mm off the reel in one snip... but 2 snips only takes 1 sec so not a major issue....

Excellent quality
These are very nice cutters. Hard to imagine how they could be improved. Expensive? Yes, but quality costs. Buy cheap = buy twice. Unless you lose these or have them stolen, it's unlikely you'll ever need to replace them.
