<p>+1 on the Erem 522N. I've had mine for 15+ years. Still good as
new after countless rounds of lead and wire (and fingernails too
:) ) snipping. Don't use them as much today as I've shifted
towards SMD and fewer flying wires.</p>
<p>I like the scissors. I've added a pair to my Mouser shopping list
for my next order. Thanks for the tip! I do have sheet metal
shears for thick stuff, but they're big and clunky.<br>

Electrician’s Scissors can cut very thick stuff, strip, deburr and
more. 8 years ago or something Paul Schreiber said the best wire
cutters are Erem 522N, I couldn’t believe they were $55 (now even
more expensive!) but curiosity got the best of me. Now I’m
addicted to them. After destroying several pairs cutting apart
sliders that I needed to remove or cutting 1/8” pot shafts, I have
found a more robust, flexible, tool to have in my pocket and snip
at anything that comes my way. And they’re $14.
