One can see how good diagonal cutters are by the cut. Knipex high leverage diagonal cutters deliver better performance. In addition to the quality forged metal parts made of high performance chrome vanadium tool steel, the most important quality criteria at Knipex include their precise machining. The sharpness and angle of the cutting edges on the Knipex 74 12 180 are designed for top performance. The excellent machining of these high leverage diagonal cutters makes sure that the material to be cut is always cut cleanly. The high quality of the tool steel produced in Germany, the hardness of the cutting edges and the forged joint axle guarantee exceptional stability and a long service life.

The geometry of the cutting edges, joint and the handles has been designed for efficiency.
