Superior tool by Klein. These weigh about the same as “lineman’s, side cutters”. They will snap through nails, screws, cable, or just about anything else you put in the jaws.

In reply to Joe. Klein actually advertises these as “High-leverage”, and they have quite a few specs to back that up. I will keep your suggestions in mind for future reviews. Thank you for your feedback.

Should really cut some larger size wire or even 12/2 MC cable for the review.

There is a reason why Klein doesn’t advertise these as high leverage diagonal cutters like their standard dikes. There is actually far less leverage at the tip of the tool than with the standard model. It’s a big deal for someone who uses them in the field.

In reply to OhioHead. Yes, their official name is "Journeyman Heavy-Duty Diagonal-Cut Pliers" and the package has the "JOURNEYMAN" symbol on it. If yours are due for replacement, this pair is definitely one to take a close look at!

Are these part of the “journeymen” series of tools that Klein released years ago? My yellow handled “journey” are due for replacement soon……
