KNIPEX Tools 78 03 125 Electronics Super Knips, 5-Inch

This is my first set of Knipex flush cutters. Excellent quality & function. I've used Lindsrom, Zuron & other high quality cutters for decades. This will be in my collection from now on!

These are nice and sharp, I am wiring up a project vehicle and mostly use them for zip ties, but also for smaller wires. Nice clean cuts and the tab to hold the cut portion works pretty good too.

Handy little snips, i primarily use them to clip zip ties on computer builds. Very high quality. Knipex all the way!

Fantastic little nippers. Fit in small spaces and cut with ease.

The best little cutters ever! I use these daily at work for cutting zip ties and small things like that, and it cuts it off flush so you don’t cut yourself open from a zip tie.

All cutters offer exceptional sharpness and solid construction. The 6” tie cutter model lacks a spring to assist opening. However the jaw opening is unparalleled and the grip section is terrific for tightening zip ties. It’s flat ground tip was likely chosen to protect the surface beneath a zip tie while cutting. This limits some precision use but makes sense given its intended application. Its head is also angled to allow easy access for flush cuts against walls or in tight spaces. While the KNIPEX offers exceptional quality, the narrow opening jaws severely limit its versatility. However, for the right application the KNIPEX would be great for delicate work in a compact form factor. The grip, spring and precision tip are terrific. The hinge action is unrivaled. For a tradesman tool, the lack of a tip protector or spring lock is a mistake. However, none of these tools offer a lock for transport. Both the 7” and 8” Tsunoda cutters offer the same quality and features with the 8” adding a bolt-stop which can be used to promote blade protection or to execute partial depth cuts. The 8” also offers a slightly larger/longer cutter which could be beneficial for cutting large plastic crate-ties.

Flush cutters that can ACTUALLY flush cut zip tie tails. Leaves zero sharp bits sticking out.

*11AUG2020 Update: The Super Knips (78-03-125) are working well and I’ve already used them for several small cutting jobs around the house with no issues. They’re excellent little cutters for light duty. However, I’ve just done my second Kohl’s return on the Knipex H/L Diagonal Cutters (74-12-160). As with the first pair of Diagonal Cutters, Amazon sent me *another* pair of apparently used cutters in a flimsy plastic bag with no box (see below for my original comments). For some reason, they just can’t seem to deliver a pair of the Diagonal Cutters in new condition. I won’t request a third pair and will simply buy them elsewhere. *Original Review Earlier this evening, I received a pair of Knipex 74-12-160 H/L Diagonal Cutters along with a pair of Knipex 78-03-125 Electronics Super Knips from Amazon. The Super Knips arrived in their own little box and appear just fine, but the Diagonal Cutters were packaged in a thin plastic bag (no box) and appear used. As shown in my attached pic, these cutters have a very noticeable dent/roll in the cutting edge on one of the jaws (the lower jaw in the pic). The edge finish is also flaking right off. I suspect that these cutters have been previously used, or perhaps the QA/QC process at Knipex isn’t what it should be. I’ve requested a return/exchange from Amazon, so we’ll see how the replacement cutters look in a couple of days.

Es una herramienta que por su calidad y diseño, me permitió trabajar con menos herramientas sobre la mesa, ya que su desempeño en varios esquemas, facilito mi trabajo

Initially it operated perfectly, then while tring to cut through a thin flat battery tag, the lower blade snapped off completely. All my other Knipex tools work with perfect satisfaction. Allen 21/05/2022
