Review: Great Product - I'm someone who uses these cutters all the time for cutting pex piping. Until I purchased this product I had been using a cheaper cutter that required precision and sometimes multiple attempts until I got the right cut. Why is it important to get a cutter that gets the cut right the first time? Well, when you're rolling out tens of meters of piping for new construction it's not so much of a problem. But when you're making a repair on an existing line you'll get yourself in a bind if you end up cutting off too much pipe to get it right! And sometimes you're holding the cutter sideways and in certain angles that makes it hard to get a precise cut. With these Ridgid cutters, due to the design of the cutter and and the blade (on my other cutters the blade wasn't set so well -- which was half the cause of the issues) you get a great cut with no skill required. I also like that it doesn't ratchet. Never liked the ratchet ones.
Review: Clean, straight cuts - I used this cutter to make a good 20 or 30 cuts in Pex supply lines. It works flawlessly. The Pex lines I was working with were 1/2" and the blade slipped through them like butter. Hardly any resistance. I haven't used the cutter for anything thicker as of yet, but I'm confident it will do it's job when the time comes. I read another review about keeping the grips locked when not in use - which is a good suggestion - otherwise the spring leaves the blade open and ready to cut. While I was working, I reached for this tool several times without remembering to lock it and almost paid the price.
