Hi,
Looking for the sparks to share what the better electrical side cutters?

What other tools do you recommend for the tool box/bag?

I also have a pair of Teng wire cutters that are really good for cutting meter tails, but I can't find them on the teng website.

My preferred tool makers, are Irazola for screwdrivers, and Knipex for cutters and pliers.
Such as these, Never had aproblem with them, other than slight electrical,blowing holes in them type accidents Embarassed Embarassed

Knipex are probably the finest cutters around, even snap-on sell knipex made pliers/cutters.
