Klein Tools D275-5 Diagonal Flush Cutters, Made in USA, Micro Wire & Compact Zip Tie Cutter, Ultra-Slim Precision Flush Cutter for Work in Confined Areas, 5-Inch

The Klein Tools Diagonal Cutting Pliers are a top-notch tool for any toolbox. The cutting edges are incredibly sharp and make clean cuts through wires and zip-ties with ease. The handles are comfortable and provide excellent grip, even during extended use. The build quality is outstanding, ensuring durability for tough jobs. These pliers are a must-have for professionals and DIYers alike!

I’ve used these a few times over a year and they are still great quality. I had to cut out hardware cloth from the bottom of a chicken run. I couldn’t have done without them!

My predecessor was a huge fan of zip ties. I am not. Thus, these things have been an absolute lifesaver for me! They're strong and sharp enough that at one point I cut 100+ zip ties in about a half hour or so and they held up just fine for it (though I did replace that pair shortly after). The handle has a nice grip to it and they will go through things like Cat6 cable like a knife through butter. I can also use them for more precise things like stripping speaker wire or Cat6 cabling without them feeling clunky or cutting too deep and harming the wire itself. They fit nicely in my work backpack and given their versatility, they're one of my most frequently-used tools. I'm on my third pair at this point, and have totally gotten my money's worth out of each pair so far.

Nice and sharp and gets the job done.

Update: 2nd order is still poorly machined and has dull tips, but at least performs a flush cut. I will settle for these.The product feels nice, durable, & has good spring action.However all that is null if the cutters don't line up.....Returned & ordered another

I had to make the decision of buying a pack of 5 cheap Chinese flush cutters or buying this one for about the same price as the pack of 5. First of all, I'm pretty sure they came in packs of 5 because they were expected to work maybe 10 times before they broke? But I digress.I saw that Klein tools were made in the USA and I had a recollection of when you used to be able to buy things made in the USA and they were really good quality... I decided to take my chances and go for the Klein tool.Was. Not. Disappointed. Just by looking at it you can tell that it is a quality tool. However, as they say, the proof is in the pudding (I need to look that up... wtf). Anyway, looking high quality doesn't mean high quality. So I've used it in numerous applications and it continues working like new. I will definitely go out of my way to buy Klein tools in the future. I miss this quality of stuff!

This is my first set of side flush cutters. So far, I am pleased with them. I used a similar set at a friends and knew I needed to get some. Great for dealing with things like zipties. They are small, so not for cutting overly large items, but that's ok. I can see lots of uses for them. So far, they have cut everything I need accurately.

Great flush cuts
