Aviation snips

Would Recommend

Quality snips

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips are such a big improvement over the standard snips you can find at the store. I have an older pair and these cut so much easier, smoother, and cleaner. I know these are still new but the quality of the steel used is very apparent.

Sturdy snips

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got a chance to try these snips out today. They worked great. Just as most good quality tools do when new. They feel very sturdy and look like they’ll hold up. I had a hard time getting used to the lock - it works just the opposite as ones I’ve used for the last 50 years. But the lock works very well and I’m sure I’ll get used to it. Only reason not 5 stars is the aerated edge on both blades may be hard to sharpen in the future.

Straight Metal Snips Review for Irwin & Lenox Snip

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This metal snips is a nice products. It is sharp for the cutting purposes and the handle fits the hand so well, and this hand conformance makes cutting much more comfortable and accurate in my view. The most attractive part of this tool is the measurement guide at the end of the snips. The user can measure the intended cut before pressing on the handle. This saves much time on short snips or cuts that are heretofore measured with a tape measur...

Great feel

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the feel of them, the weight is just right. They didn’t cut as easy as the left ones, probably due to an injury I have. Cuts about 1 3/8” with each cut. Cuts were clean ,smooth and no burrs were left. Overall great product!

Great feel

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great feeling handles, just the right weight. Cuts about 1 3/8 inch per cut. Right cut were harder than the left for me ,probably because of an injury to my wrist. Easy to lock/unlock with one hand. Smooth cuts with very little burrs.

Produce a very nice cut in my materials

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using these snips for just over two weeks now, they are light weight and cut through the copper and brass sheet I use in my business very well. Unlike other makers snips I find Irwins do not buckle the material at the end of each cut allowing for a smooth cut over the entire length. Its important to use the correct snips and having both a left and right cut also minimizes the chance of an irregular cut. A very useful well made tool

Right cutting snips

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are awesome aviation snips. I was unaware that Lenox made aviation snips. I needed to replace the dull snips I had owned for several years. Knowing Lenox made excellent cutting tools these came along at just the right time. The first thing I noticed were the large and very comfortable hand grips. I also appreciated the clearly indicated green marking identifying the snips as right cutting. The best part of the snips was the extremely shar...

Left cutting aviation snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these snips when I replaced the forced air furnace in my home. I had to modify the sheet metal duct and needed to cut and shape several pieces of sheet metal to complete the installation. The left cutting snips were easily identified by the industry standard red marking on the handle. The first thing i appreciated was how easily the snips cut. I also had to make some sheet metal patches for places where old duct was removed in the plenu...

Super Smooth Cutting

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips cut through galvanized flashing like butter. I have been working on some winter prep and needed to do some flashing work around my chimney and on my shed. These snips made super quick work out of the project. Some of the angles and corners that I needed were not easily accomplished with left discharge snips, but having these made it 10 times easier than having to flip my pieces over. The handles are very ergonomic and nice to ho...

Like cutting paper....
