I used to own a pair of older, beloved ProSnips and misplaced them. So I ordered these as a substitute to cut high-pressure laminate in the cabinetmaking trade. When I received them I had my druthers as to whether they would perform as well as the old ones. Upon using them for the first time they worked out better than the old ones. The laminate doesn't have the tendency to crack at the end of cut. They are built rugged and look and feel like they will last much longer than the ProSnips. Outstanding product!
If you do sheet metal for a living, look no further. These snips will cut through 22ga easily and are designed to get the metal away from your hands reducing cuts. I have tried many others and still keep coming back to these.
I swear by this brand of snips they cut great and the off set really helps for speed when you are slinging ductwork. It is a remarkable product and the price just can't be beat for the results.
