The 10-inch Knipex angled diagonal cutter (model 74 01 250) is
ideal for tough, continuous use. Easy to use, it offers
high-leverage axel design with a 20 percent reduction in required
force compared to conventional cutters of the same length for
reduced igue. It features optimum coordination of the cutting
edge angle, transmission ratio, and ergonomic handle shape, and
it easily cuts nails and all types of wire with high-performance
precision.
Designed for cutting harder wires and materials, the 10-inch
diagonal cutter is unique to Knipex, providing up to 25 percent
more cutting power than the 8-inch model. Its longer size also
allows for reaching into confined spaces.
Forged from oil-hardened chrome vanadium steel, it's built to
last. The fixed forged axle rivet joint assures continuous smooth
operation with no weakening or wobbling effect over time. The
precision matched, induction-hardened cutting edges cut a wide
range of materials — from soft copper and aluminum to hardened
materials like nails, piano wire, or ACSR wire without changing
tools or damaging the cutting edges. It's completed with heavy
duty plastic-coated handle grips.
Suitable for all types of wire including piano wire (view larger

Quality in Every Detail
-----------------------
Sometimes we give our pliers a really hard time. We try to
destroy them to find out what makes them good and long-lasting.
Because we don't want to leave anything to chance, we take a
long, careful look.
The steel Knipex uses is precisely hardened with a maximum of 0.8
percent carbon and defined parts of chromium and vanadium,
guaranteeing optimum cutting performance and service life — even
though it requires special production and costs a bit more. But
our high product demands require this.
The rivet of our high-leverage diagonal cutter also has to stand
up to a lot of stress. That's why we literally give it backup: we
forge it straight onto the pliers. This means extra effort as we
have to precision mill the rivet to a few hundredth millimeters.
But satisfied users are worth this effort.
Knipex also looks closely at the small details. The angles, the
sharpness, the hardness, the toughness of the cutting edges. The
precision and smooth movement of the joint. The handle design and
the finish. We keep reviewing these subjects, we research, we
test, and we improve our pliers.
About Knipex
------------
Headquartered in Wuppertal, Germany, Knipex is an
independently-owned family enterprise steeped in tradition and
specializing in the manufacturing of high-quality pliers. It all
started back in 1882 when C. Gustav Putsch set up his own forge
shop in Cronenberg (now a suburb of Wuppertal), and the company
is now run by a fourth generation of that family. The world's
leading brand in pliers today, Knipex is focused on the
performance, service life, and ergonomics of its tools in order
to meet the high expectations of professional users.

From the Manufacturer
---------------------
High leverage diagonal cutters require 21% less effort. The high
cutting performance is due to optimum co-ordination of the
cutting edge angle, transmission ratio and the ergonomically
handle shape. The precision cutting edges are induction hardened
to approximately 64 HRC and will cut medium hard wire up to 4.6
mm; hard wire up to 3.5 mm and piano wire with maximum 3.0 mm
diameter. The forged-on axle offers a high level of stability for
heavy use and long service life.
