Knipex’s Innovatively-Shaped Slim Knips Precision Cutting Pliers

To work the handles of pliers, you need a certain amount of throw. Knipex’s new Slim Knips cutting pliers were designed for tight spaces, where handle travel would be limited. Asymmetrical handles make it easier to both hold and work the pliers, while the hand position provides good visibility.The handles are spring-loaded, to ease repetitive snipping tasks. Furthermore the tool’s butt end is tapered, to reduce interference with other tools or errant limbs when it’s in a tool pouch or its holster. Alternatively, it can be hung from a lanyard.
Overall a great design.
