These Cable Shears from Knipex are designed to cut single copper and aluminium conductors as well as multiple stranded cables.

Made from high-grade vanadium special tool steel, that has been forged and then oil-hardened, for a longer, robust working life. The one-handed operation makes cutting easy, while the pinch protection mechanism ensures hand safety during use. Our trainer points out though, “they didn’t cut quite as easily as some other brands, such as the NWS cutters. Precision ground and hardened blades for cutting copper and aluminium cables without crushing or deforming, as well as multiple stranded cables. The range also includes special tools for cutting, stripping and crimping including tools for applications in aerospace, solar power technology and optical fiber installation.However, it's important to note that these shears are not suitable for cutting steel wire or hard-drawn copper conductors. The initial cut in the front profile also provides a hand-friendly grip position for large cross-sections. Say goodbye to undesirable crushing and deformation, and experience a precise cut that not only looks professional but also ensures the integrity of the cable remains intact. However, one issue our electrical trainer picked up on with cutting was due to these hooked blades, “you have to naturally open a bit wider to get the cable in.

Unlike diagonal cutters with blades that meet at an obtuse angle and which crush cable insulation, the Knipex 95 12 200 cable shears cut with the twin cutting edge using a scissors action. They are therefore excellent for shortening stranded and finely stranded Cu and Al cables, also with large cross-sections.

You also have to put a bit more effort into cutting the same size cable compared to some other cutters, as they don’t cut as quite as easily and require a bit more pressure. Our trainer advised that if you’re looking for a pair of cable shears or cutters to use regularly throughout the day, these Knipex ones may not be right for you. When opening and closing the tool, “it’s nice and smooth; there’s no notchiness or sticking, like you would get with some other cutters when they struggle to open that initial bit.
