Ratings & Reviews for LENOX Forged Steel Left cut Snips

Nice snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the Lenox straight aviation snips to cut drip edge on my new house. I found that the snips cut well and seem to be well constructed. The clip to hold the snips closed is in a good place as to not hinder the use of them. I alike that the handles are color coded.

Very comfortable to use snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These straight line snips work great. They are very comfortable in the hand. They have no problem with metal up to 18 gauge. I especially liked the inch markings on the cutters that make it very easy to cut to the right depth when notch sheetmetal up to a depth of 1 and a 1/2 inches.

Great Aviation Snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tool itself: Well made. Steel where it needs to be strong with a comfortable handle. All joints are well made and I found no snags or pinch points. The blades are smooth and precise. The handle is comfortable in both my left and right hand. The finger notch in the bottom white handle is an added bonus in comfort and control. The lock is smooth and easy to operate, using the thumb of my right hand or the index finger of my left hand. The to...

Easier on the hands than most

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easily able to control throughout the length of the cut. Was very surprised how easily it cut long strips of tin off a large sheet without all the problems with the material curling and difficulties keeping the cut straight.

Smooth as silk

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips really are as smooth as silk. Great leverage and sharp out of the box. Great features indicative of time and effort expended in the design of these snips. Several features are worthy of noting: The handles are really ergonomically designed and extremely comfortable. Head and shoulders better than the snips they will be retiring. The color coding indicating left and right snips is going to be very handy when reaching...

Works well on sheet metal

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These skips worked great on a roofing project. They are fast, accurate and get the job done. Had no problem slicing through sheet metal. Durable, dependable, reliable. Love the locking feature. Great product.

Worked great on my vinyl siding project

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips worked great on my house siding projects. They are a quality product, razor sharp out of the package and worked flawlessly. There is a definite heft to this tool. Locking feature helps when tossing these to a partner on the ladder.

Awesome snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When you think about all the tools that you own or could ever own you don’t think about tin snips as a sexy tool. But when you need a tool that does the job it was intended to do these lenox snips definitely fit the bill. They cut thin sheet metal such as trim coil like butter. I am definitely a fan of how they feel in my hand. The clear color coding and direction marks on the tool make it easy to identify it and a left or right cut. 10/10 defi...

It’s all in the handles!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The handles are the difference maker on these snips! Whether your making a few cuts a day or hundreds you will thank the big man upstairs for purchasing these snips. Compared to other brands these have clearly been engineered to provide relief to the tradesman using them.

Excellent Snips!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips are more comfortable than any I've used in the past, more efficient than any I've used in the past in terms of effort required and amount of cutting per snip, and seem to be super durable and built to last for the long haul. Super sharp, comfy, and good looking. Very pleased.

The perfect aviation snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the best aviation snips I have ever owned. I have been using them on some soffit and they cut with amazing ease. The handles are long enough to produce great leverage that makes cutting very easy. The grip is very ergonomic and fits my hand very comfortably. The latch to hold them closed is very durable and is great for keeping them from coming open when you slide them in and out of a tool pouch.

Needs some work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just okay. The first three cuts were excellent. The blades are sharp. Then it came out of adjustment after the third cut. That should not happen that quickly. I really wanted to make these my main snips because they are light.

Best aviation snips I’ve ever used. Irwin rocks!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these left cut aviation snips to install a new aluminum downspout on my front porch gutter. The snips cut the aluminum like butter and I quickly had all the pieces cut and assembled and installed. Wife was impressed.

These are great snips. Irwin is the best.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed to install an additional downspout on my front porch gutter. The aviation snips worked perfectly to cut all the the aluminum pieces. Wife commented it looks as good as the one we paid th have installed.

Irwin & Lennox RA Snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Irwin & Lennox RA Snips are well crafted. Great design and easy to use. Each cut is like the first cut. Sharp and cuts so easily. A must have in your tool arsenal. Great for precision cutting.

Irwin & Lennox SA Snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Irwin Straight Aviation Snips are a great tool. Crafted for years of use and extremely sharp, they do not disappoint. They are quite well designed with a comfortable grip for easy handling. Definitely a must have.

Super grip & cutting power!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super grip and cutting power. I love these snips! Cut through the ducting like a warm knife through butter and they have a depth gage on the blades. I used this to finish up my father in-laws ducting & I absolutely love them. I can’t honestly think of anything I dislike about these snips. I would buy them & recommend them to my employees & business friends.
