I (separate LED legs, wire cut, etc.) for smaller electronics activities a compact pliers sought which has a minimum bend at the cutting edge. I've been using this side cutter found a suitable product, with which I am very satisfied. Several projects I was able to work through now without subsides the sharpness of the cutting. For thin wires (about LED legs) is the Schneider also suitable, as for very thin copper wire or plastic parts. The handles are comfortable to grip, do not twist when handled and are quite slippery.
All in all very recommendable, if it "be times exactly needs"
