Keep your hand away from the material being cut.

Make straight and curved cuts in sheet metal—these sets come with three tools for different cutting patterns. Also called aviation snips, they have a double hinge, so they cut with more force and require less effort to squeeze the handles than standard sheet metal cutters.

Prevent waste from flying up as you work. A double blade makes two cuts to create a 7/64"-wide step that peels back, leaving little distortion and smooth edges.

Also known as bulldog snips, these have long handles and short blades for cutting through thick sheet metal with less effort than standard sheet metal cutters.

Blades are tapered to give you more control when cutting straight lines, tight curves, and circles, and they're serrated to prevent slipping. These cutters are also known as duckbill snips.

The unique shape of these cutters gives you 40% more power per cut than standard sheet metal cutters. When blades get dull, loosen a few screws to replace them.

Made from aluminum bronze, the blade and handle on these cutters inhibit sparking and are FM approved. Use them for straight cuts.

Turn your portable drill into a punch cutter for cutting curved and straight shapes in flat and corrugated sheet metal and plastic.

Notch, cut, and pierce a variety of materials including metal, plastic, and vinyl.

Safely cut plastic near electronics. The grips on these cutters divert static from your application to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) from building up and damaging sensitive equipment.

Make accurate cuts at precise angles. These cutters have a miter guide that is notched to line up your workpiece.

Longer handles and shorter blades give you more leverage than other scissors to cut tough materials such as leather, rope, and thick cardboard.

Minimize hand fatigue—the handles on these scissors are lightweight and spring-action opens the blades for quick repeat cuts.

Blades are ceramic to stay sharp longer than metal blades.

Prevent snags and injuries with the rounded points on these scissors.

These small scissors have narrow, sharp tips for fine cutting and trimming.
