Nice flush snippers
Great quality and do the job nicely. Not quite as high quality as something like CK or Knippex, but for the price they are amazing value and have cut everything I've tried. Seem durable.

Very good when used correctly
This is my 2nd pair, I damaged my 1st pair by trying to cut stainless steel wire (my fault, should've known better) they performed faultlessly before my stupidity, hence I had no hesitation replacing with another "Hakko" pair

Save 10 pounds as these Identical to Piergiacomi Micro
It's ok but identical to Piergiacomi Micro for 9 pounds. Exactly the same steel, the same handles, the same branding places and made in Italy badge.

Came as described. Although is bigger, is as heavy as my other tools, comfortable to use. Cuts flush and can get to difficult knots in the wire. Been using it for a couple months and I love it.

Use it only for cutting soft wires. The metal blades are soft and I damaged mine trying to cut a steel wire. Now I see that cheaper, good quality cutters have become available.

I've been in electronics for years, and a good pair of flush cutters is an absolute must-have. After using the Hakko CHP-170 for a few weeks, I can confidently say it's the best pair I've ever owned, and it’s an incredible value for the money. The precision is what truly stands out. The jaws come together perfectly, allowing for an incredibly clean, flush cut on even the smallest wires and zip ties. There’s no crushing or fraying—just a perfectly smooth snip every single time. It feels like a high-end tool, but without the high-end price tag. The handle is comfortable and the spring-loaded action is smooth, so it never feels like a chore to use, even during repetitive tasks. I’ve used it on everything from 24 AWG wire to snipping the leads on small components, and it has performed flawlessly. For anyone who does any kind of electrical work, soldering, or hobby projects, this is a game-changer. It's a small tool that makes a huge difference in the quality of your work.
