Gotta catch em all
The more you buy, the more you save (off RRP)!
He who dies with the most tools wins
Or $24 from Germany for the version with the wire holder https://www.amazon.com.au/78-13-125-Electronics-Super-Knips/…
The wire holder is well worth having, keeps the little bits you're cutting from flinging across the room.
neither of them are very hard at 54HRC, definitely just for cutting copper and similar soft metals/plastic
$25.61 for 62HRC and wire holder https://www.amazon.com.au/KNIPEX-78-71-125-multi-component/d…
What's considered good? I have a 64 pair from a previous deal.
Had a poke around.
Heres 62HRC for $20.54
or 64HRC for $43.62Those are both different tools. The Super Knips are for cutting small things completely flush to a surface e.g. copper wires, zip ties. To achieve this they don't have a bevel on that side of the tool.
Those tools you linked are regular diagonal cutters (one has an offset head), they're much more durable but both of them have a bevel on both sides of the cutting edge and so will leave a 2-3mm nub of material whenever you cut something.
as for hardness, depends on your use case. The stainless (inox) knipex knips don't rust, but are softer.
I can't keep buying every Knipex tool I don't have ;_;
Look at these things.
Or these.
I'm gonna go broke…
