Overview
Stainless steel runs through the whole build of the Knipex 95 05 20 US cutter, handle included, with a listed length of 1.25 inches and a weight of 6.72 ounces.
The all stainless construction and light weight point to a small, precision oriented cutter rather than a heavy duty pair, closer in scale to an electrician's or crafts cutter than a bolt cutter. It ships as a single piece.
- All stainless steel, handle included
- 6.72 ounce item weight
- 1.25 inch length
- Ships as a single piece
Who it's for
Good for close, precise cutting work where an all stainless build resists corrosion, such as fine wire or small gauge material. Not sized for heavy cable or bolt cutting given the light weight and short listed length.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Fully stainless steel construction resists corrosion
- Light 6.72 ounce weight for extended handling
- 100 or more bought in the past month
- 1.25 inch listed length points to a small tool, not suited to heavy cutting
- No cutting capacity given for wire or cable gauge
Performance notes
All stainless construction trades some of the leverage of a steel jawed, plastic handled cutter for corrosion resistance, which matters in wet or outdoor conditions. At 6.72 ounces it stays light enough for extended one handed use.
