Overall, a good side cutter, he plucks a little when stripping very fine wires.

About the excellence of Knipex tools I probably nothing, because everything has been said.
However, this side cutter does not completely smooth cut, but tiny teeth.
This certainly has its advantages, but the disadvantage that with very fine wires such as bicycle cable "plucks" it.
Germanized, this means you cut slightly unwittingly part of the wires in the strand with from.
With smooth cutting that does not happen if you have many years of practice.
Otherwise it cuts cleanly through wires, as it should be.
Conclusion: From me, unfortunately, only four stars because I still have to use the old side cutter for fine wires.
