KNIPEX Tools - Electrician's Shears (9505155SBA)

These are hands down the best wire strippers, and cutters money can buy. I use these solely for my job now and anyone who is a low-voltage person or an electrician should have a set of these. The holster for your belt comes in super handy so you can keep them on you throughout the day. They are also extremely sharp and can cut through just about anything. You can also get a pair that have crimpers on the inside of the blades if you need that.

Great scissors! Cut through almost anything. The included sheath very nice too. This is a high quality product as U would expect from Knipex. Good leverage for tough materials

I'm an Electrician who now does low-voltage work. Most electricians use side cutters (dikes). Most low voltage techs use snips. I bought a pair of Fluke snips and I hated them. Most other electricians or former electricians feel the same way.These snips are on a whole 'nother level. EXTREMELY comfortable to use, and very high quality. The grip/handle is perfect. I mean perfect. Fits in your hand like a tailored glove and gives you great leverage without hurting your hand. There is a padded grippy outside surface to the handles so you can use your palm for extra leverage, but I never do that, I get plenty of leverage using the normal 3-fingered grip.The long handle and shorter blades increase your cutting power and it is noticeable. The circular cutout thing near start of the blade looks weird, but it super useful. It makes it way easier to cut cables, and way easier to strip the jackets off cables. It takes a little bit to get used to having it on the cutting surface, but its a great design.The holster thing is OK. nothing special. If you just stick it onto your jeans pocket it doesn't work that well, but mounted on a belt it works really well. The snips stay in the holder very well, there is a ball/detent surface that hold them in. When you take the snips out it pulls the holster out of your pocket, but with some practice you can do it one handed by holding the holder down with your forefinger. No big deal.Overall, I love these snips. They're better than traditionally designed snips by a long shot.

These are amazing shears - both for wiring, but even more so for cutting things like rope and other circular items. They are super sharp, very precise without slop, and another excellent Knipex product. You get what you pay for.

Great tool overall. Very sharp blades, accurate cuts, perfect size and very distinct appearance

Best snips use them for everything good quality

Speed data work up by ten times, good value and super sharp

These have an oddly satisfying feel in the hand when cutting. I use these for IT work, so nothing too hardcore. Cuts Cat6 like it's nothing, and still cuts thin stuff like labels/stickers with no snags or dings in the edge. Still crazy sharp after a couple months of steady use. My only complaint is the hard plastic holster is kind of a pain. It doesn't fit my belt very well and takes a bit of pull to get them out so I tend to yank the whole thing off my belt every now and then. Maybe just preference, but I'd rather have a leather/cordura sheath for them.
