## Overview

The KNIPEX 71 12 200 Comfort Grip High Leverage Cobolt Cutters deliver exceptional cutting performance with 60% less effort due to a patented lever action design. Featuring induction hardened cutting edges rated at approximately 64 HRC, these cutters slice through bolts, nails, rivets, and wires up to 6mm diameter with ease. Ergonomically designed with an integrated opening spring and locking mechanism, they ensure comfortable, secure handling and safe transport. Crafted from forged chrome vanadium steel, this tool is built for durability and trusted by professionals for fleet and plant maintenance.

## Description

Exceptional cutting performance: 60% less effort compared to conventional high leverage diagonal cutters. Induction hardened cutting edges (approx. 64 HRC) for cutting soft, hard and piano wire. Cuts materials like bolts, nails, rivets, etc. up to 1/4" (6.0 mm) diameter. Exceptional cutting performance with minimum effort because of lever action design. Micro-structured cutting edges allow easy cutting of large cross-sections. Gripping surface below the joint for gripping and pulling wires with a diameter from 3/64". Straight blade. Opening spring and locking device are integrated in the handles for comfortable work and protected transport. Chrome vanadium heavy-duty steel; forged, multi stage oil-hardened.

Review: Good heavy wire cutter? - This product is more properly a heavy duty wire cutter rather than a bolt cutter. It cuts a ten penny common nail easily with 1 hand, and cuts a 16 penny nail with good pressure from two hands. (For comparison: I squeezed my bathroom scales and found that with both hands I can hold the scale at 150 lbs without bounce.) It cuts all types of insulated wire commonly used in houses easily and cleanly. I am unable to use it to cut cattle panel wire. The jaws open wide enough but it would not cut 1/4 inch round material unless it was exceptionally soft. This is a quality wire/nail cutter. It is a very handy size and comfortable to use. The lock mechanism is great. It serves well for most home/hobby wire cutting needs and will last most non-commercial users decades. If you need a wire cutter buy it. It is a good value.
Review: Great tool - I use these daily working on conveyor belting in a food manufacturing plant...like all knipex tools I have, these things are great. Cut well and are durable
