ENGINEER precision mini/micro side cutters, professional grade, ESD safe with hardened carbon steel jaws (PCB side snips). Made in Japan. ns-06

Engineer makes some of the nicest, high-quality pliers I've ever seen or used. Everything lines up perfectly, and they function very smoothly. They cut precisely and are extremely sharp. I'm definitely buying more Engineer pliers, especially the Neji-saurus line. I don't expect to ever have a problem with these little cutters.

So I got these on a whim because I was reading a post on a Warhammer 40k forum and someone was gushing about these clippers. I am new to the hobby and have been using a pair of wire cutters from Michael's and scissors from a hobby kit to remove models from sprues.My flush cutters were too small and while the scissors worked they were hard on my hands and started to give me a callus. I was sick of warping or breaking bits because of the low quality scissors I had and the review I read pushed me over the edge.First thing I want to commend has nothing to do with the product and it's the packaging. It's in what looks like a plastic blister case that's going to be annoying to deal with but it's easy to unpack it with nothing more than your hands.What is amazing about these clippers compared to what I had is how easily they cut through plastic sprues. It requires so little force that sometimes you wonder if you even did anything at all. There's a spring in there that makes the activation feel fluid in a manner I didn't think possible.I don't have to worry about tiny bits breaking during shipping but I do have a warning if you're using this for hobbying. Make sure you're accurate with where you place these because they will cut right through whatever is placed under them.Also, while you are able to attach this to a keyring as per the listing and packaging but it doesn't actually come with a keyring so you'll have to bring your own keyring.

The Precision Mini/Micro Side Cutters are a must-have for electronics work. The hardened carbon steel jaws provide sharp, clean cuts, even on fine wires. Their compact design is great for tight spaces, and the ESD-safe, comfortable handles ensure easy, extended use without hand fatigue. These snips are professional-grade, perfect for PCB assembly and detailed work. After weeks of use, they’re still performing flawlessly with no dulling of the blades. Highly recommended for anyone working on electronics!

perfekte Qualität - eben typisch "Made in Japan"

Als Deutscher ist man ja von Werkzeugmarken verwöhnt, bei mir mit z.b. Metabo und Wiha direkt vor der Haustür. Aber die Qualität und Präzision der Engineer Produkte ist zumindest für manche echt nochmal ein Level für sich, tolle Haptik & Optik.
