Ratings & Reviews for LENOX Forged Steel Straight cut Snips

Cuts like Butter

[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 right 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 h...

Great product and a well design tool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well made product for specific task they are designed to do. You can tell the design and comfort was a key part of this product. The look is also a nice addition to a tool like this that shows they went above and beyond in the design. Sharp clean cuts every time

Another winner from Lenox

Like cutting paper....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A nice grip makes cutting not so difficult. Sharp blades help as well. I was able to get nice straight lines with it. I used to dread cutting metal but these snips make it a lot easier. Looking forward to having these for a long time.

Snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these to cut metal roofing and side panels for a chicken coop and also on ductwork. They are very comfortable and cut very well. I feel that they are well constructed, of durable materials. These are my new go-to snips. The lock works well and is easy to use.

These have found a home in my tool belt.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I reviewed this product in a comparison format. The test was against two other pairs of straight cut tin snips that I already own. One pair is very old and didn’t perform well at all. The other pair are about two weeks old with very little use. Both the Lenox and the other brand went through the material in 17 snips. Honestly the other pair cut straighter, but it was a very minimal difference. Where Lenox shined was the grip design comfort.

Very nice snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice pair of snips. comfortable grip well balanced. Very sharp blades also has 1/8 " ruler Marks on blade for precise cuts. Cuts very well in a number of materials .I tried with sheet metal, copper and aluminum. Smooth action. Very well made.

Perfect snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips are absolutely perfect. They feel great in hand, are well built, have excellent cutting power, and function far better than my old snips that I have used for many years. I love the cutting depth, as well as the precision at which they cut.

Feels so good!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the design, feel and function of these Snips. Feel very comfortable in the hand. look for them to do my cutting... anything and everything that needs cutting....metal, cardboard, leather, etc. Positive functioning lock and with the nice sleek grip material they will be around for many years to come. Great snips IRWIN & LENOX!!!

Great snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Another great product. I use snips quite often. I always used Wiss snips. They were supposed to be the best. After a few uses they would always get hard to open & close. The Lenex snips are still running smooth even after cutting through roof tar & shingles. I have found my new favorite snips.

Great quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The big difference in snips is their quality, they are all pretty much the same design. These are high quality and the handles fit well in the hand. The ruler on the blades is a cool, if unnecessary, feature but it shows thought. Overall a good set and cuts well

Left Cut Aviation Snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you can only afford one pair of Aviation Snips, buy the yellow handled- they’re optimized for straight cutting, but they’ll do left and right as well. If you can afford two pairs, buy Red and Green- they’re optimized for Left and Right curves, respectively, but they’ll do fine for straight too. And if you can afford, count your blessings. These are nice snips- the over-molded, non-slip handles feel good, the blade lock works smoothly and t...

great tool.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set of metal snips is excellent Quality. Very sharp and cuts cleanly. Good weight and well constructed. Would recommend them as replacements for older tools. Always use these Snips when cutting most materials too.

Great Snips

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips are the most easy to straight aviation snips that I have ever used. They fit very comfortably in your hand and enable you to make Sharp clean cuts. I was using them on an HVAC install, and had no issues with these snips. I would recommend these to anybody that has to cut metal for a living

Good quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only so much you can say about aviation snips, these seem to be good quality and well manufactured not skimping on out steel or anything. Limited use shows these to be comfortable and blade edge holding up.

Snip Envy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do not use Right aviation snips very often, but when I do need them....these work. The grip is great. They feel nice in the hand and move nicely through sheet metal and flashing. A roofer on my project tried them and said they worked great. He used them all day and said he's getting a pair.

Easy cutting of a hard substance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These snips as well as a set of left aviation snips were provided to me by Lenox at the most opportune time. I was about to begin constructing a photo studio for a friend using 20 and 25-gauge metal framing for its magnetic and lightweight properties and needed snips to help in the construction. The photos were taken at the beginning of the construction, but they were instrumental in the entire process as all of the elements of these movable wa...
