Knipex 8″ Cobolt Compact Bolt Cutters Recessed Blade – Plastic Grip

Introduction

An all around tool for the toughest demands!

60% reduction in required force compared to conventional high leverage diagonal cutters. The ingenious lever action mechanism ensures a favorable lever ratio with very little friction. The cutting force is about 20 times higher than the hand force applied

The recess in the blade allows easier cutting of thicker wires, e.g. for anchor bolts in false ceilings
The cutting edge recess near the joint keeps thicker wires in a better cutting position (optimum lever ratio). There is no need to reposition the tool to achieve the desired cut

Precision cutting edges for soft and hard wire and piano wire
Cuts components like bolts, nails, rivets, etc. up to 5.2 mm dia.
Exceptional cutting performance with minimum effort due to innovative, effective lever action design
