Workshop Knives & Scissors

Things to consider when choosing workshop knives and scissors

Tool type

• Shears - used for cutting sheet metal, copper, soft metals and steel. They have a serrated blade to prevent slipping while cutting metal.
• Snap-off and insertion blades - for cutting various materials and stripping wire. They use interchangeable blades that can be purchased separately.

Design

For extra grip, choose handles that are rubber-coated or ribbed.
