## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where are they made?**
A: Mine lasted almost 30 years and were abused! Bought Channel lock brand as both Crescent and Craftsman is now China crap.  BUY Channel Lock as they are 7 dollars more and not junk

**Q: will these cut a saltwater grade fishing hook?**
A: Yes - in a heartbeat! These are 8 or 9" and if it just for cutting finishing hooks, a good 6" set will be perfect and easily stow-able in a tackle box.

**Q: Are these pliers spring loaded, aloowing them to open up completely without assistance? If so how strong is the spring? Will my hand get tired w/ use?**
A: The pliers are a 1/3 Lighter Than Standard Pliers, Reduces Fatigue

**Q: Is this plier/snipper made in Taiwan (R.O.C.) or in China (mainland) ?**
A: Mine are just marked Crescent with the part number PS5429C. The quality of the cutter is such I doubt it is from China. Mine keep getting stolen they are such good cutters. I use mine on copper and aluminum wire mostly.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job, nice.
*by F***N on August 21, 2025*

It works fine. Just cut a screwdriver. No dents on the cutter. It was easier than with simple cutter of almost the same size.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprising value
*by B***1 on September 21, 2025*

I got the 8" diagonal cutter back in 2019. I got the cutter because it was cheap and I wanted a one to abuse. It's still in active use 6 years later. I've used it for everything from finishing nails to wire to heavy monofilament fishing line. Surprising for a tool that I originally got to be disposable.Of course, I know better than to use it to cut hardened metals (hacksaws, heavy bolt cutters, cutoff wheels, etc. are the right tools for that). That said, I've pushed it way farther than I would have expected to when I got it.Finally, the latch still works and it says closed! Odd, but a feature I appreciate after so many cutter latches failing through the years.Well worth the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome cutters
*by K***Y on August 29, 2025*

These cutters are awesome. I use them to cut metal weather stripping and they cut like a breeze. I would highly recommend these to anyone that wants a good pair of cutters.
