TOUGHBUILT The ToughBuilt® Commanding Cut Collection

Great Grip

I worked on a project to reinforce some two by sixes in my attic. I reinforced them with stock galvanized metal braces. Some of the braces had to be modified and cut to length. I used the aviation snips to cut the metal braces. The metal on the braces was 20 gauge thick. The snips cut the braces with very little effort. The handles are large and sturdy enough to get a good grip. You can grab them with one hand or use both hands. I used one hand. Snips were the right size for my project. They are...

Nice strong snip set,

I purchased the set of three snips and I can tell you that like with other Toughbuilt hand tools I don’t have any problem, set is make of strong material and they still sharp like the first day, some people may say they are a little big compared to other brands but I like the idea of extra leverage

Interesting tool!

I was offered these as a Lowes loop promotional. I was leery of trying them, I don’t really cut sheet metal. But I do cut hardware cloth so I thought I would give them a try. See the pictures, I wanted to cut a circle. I could use this to put in my concrete pavers and as a topping for a stool I wanted to mosaic. I documented the steps so you can see I accomplished my goal. These tools are well built. I’m almost 70 with no so strong hands. However, my son found them much easier to manipulate. Th...

Aviation Snips? I Think Not !!!!

I will add 4 photos to this review (showing 2 people trying to use the snips). Both of us tried cutting with the front edge, the middle of the blades, and the deep inside also. They wouldn't cut anything! We went so far as to try to cut the cardboard to which the snips were attached, and they had a hard time cutting it. I would NOT recommend anyone purchasing these. In case you can't tell, we were trying to trim the end off of a "hose clamp". These snips didn't even put a nick in the met...

A good product for minor uses

I am in the middle of both bathroom and kitchen remodels, I had rings around the turn off values that needed to be cut and a brace around the vanity, this product did the shop thou not vary sharp, it handle vary well even with a weak hand caused by a break, it did exactly what I needed it to do it was comfortable had a great grip a thumb grip (which I’ve not seem before and it helped) and for extra security it had a security feature that could be locked when not in use, over all it did a great j...

Toughbuilt Straight Cut Aviation Snips - Great!

This pair of Toughbuilt Straight Cut Aviation Snips replaced a old pair of snips that I have used for many years. This pair of snips is very well built, and cut so much better than my old pair. I do like the closure bar to keep them closed until the next time they are needed, and they are comfortable to the hand while using them. The built-in finger and thumb stop bars in the handle work well and give you great control. I highly recommend this pair of snips to anyone looking to buy a quality pai...

very sturdy tool

I received these as part of a Lowe’s loop promotion. I wasn’t sure how o would use them but the reviews said they cut more than sheet metal. I make cement pavers so I thought I’d give them a try. They are very well built but a little unwieldy for my 70 year old hands. See the pictures for my attempt, I wanted to cut a circle for a table top I want to try to mosaic. They worked very well, they were just heavy for me.
