Overview
The KNIPEX 71 22 200 SBA is a hand cutter with plastic-coated handles, weighing about 13.12 ounces. Its handle material is built for a secure grip during repeated cutting.
The listing specifies plastic handle covering and a weight just over 13 ounces, but does not detail jaw type, cutting capacity, or blade material. That leaves cutting capacity for specific wire gauges or cable types unconfirmed from the data given. Buyers who need exact capacity numbers should check the product page directly before ordering.

Who it's for
Fits users who want a compact hand cutter with a coated grip for general wire or cable cutting tasks. Buyers needing a specific cutting capacity, such as heavy-gauge cable, should confirm exact jaw specs separately since they aren't listed here.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Plastic-coated handles for grip comfort
- Light enough for one-handed use
- Cutting capacity not listed
- Jaw type not specified in data
Performance notes
Plastic-coated handles are meant to improve grip and comfort across repeated cuts rather than affect raw cutting force. At about 13 ounces the tool is light enough for one-handed use over extended sessions. The listing does not include jaw hardness or cutting capacity figures, so matching it to a specific wire gauge requires checking the manufacturer's specs.
