Get a pair!
Pros: Attractive, Durable, Great Value, High Quality, Rugged
"After years of using generic DIY wire/cable cutters with varying degrees of success, I got these and have never looked back! They really have shown me that for some jobs, only bike specific tools will do. They truly are a joy to use, cutting the cable and outer cleanly every time. The crimper for the cable end caps works very well too. While they don't come cheap they are worth every penny and should last a lifetime with care."

Great Cutter!
Pros: Rugged, High Quality
"used this to perform brake cable cutting, gear cables & the cable housings. I could not believe how well this cutter makes a perfect cut even through the tough brake housings. It beats a generic wire cutter hands down"

Makes the job easy
Pros: Durable, Great Value, High Quality, Rugged
"In the past, I have always used a thin cutting wheel in an angle grinder to cut cables. Usually works OK on the casing, but useless for the inner. This tool makes it so quick and easy - wish I'd grabbed one years ago!"

ええわこれ
Pros: 高品質
Cons: 高価格
"日本では高価だが、英国でも安くはない(笑)
しかし工具をケチるとろくなことがないのも事実で、結果的に安物を買って再度買い換えるよりこのくらいのを買っておいたほうが利巧だろう

No more cable cutting worries
Pros: High Quality
Cons: Expensive
"I was one of those folk who, whenever they fitted a new cable, would then try to cut off the excess with whatever tool I thought up to the job. The result was always a 'dogs dinner'.
So, when I purchased a new frame recently and replaced the cables I thought that I would treat myself and totally banish the cable cutting blues.
These cutters are excellent. Perfect every time and easy to operate. If I only had other cables to cut........... I haven't but those that I have are cut very cleanly."

Excellent quality
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Comfortable, High Quality, Adjustable, made by park
Cons: none - not even the price
"Really sturdy, well made product. Superb quality - exactly what you'd expect from Park. When the cutters eventually wear out (probably about the year 2053), they can be adjusted to provide a renewed and restored action and finish to the cutting process, thereby making them as good as new again. Expensive but you get what you pay for. Should last for very many years."

"Works really well. Spent too many years cutting cables with a tired old pair of side cutters - should have purchased this long ago! Crimps the aluminium cable end caps a treat too."

Worth paying for
Pros: Durable, Comfortable, High Quality
Cons: Expensive
"Read all the reviews, but lets face it, you only going to buy one of these in your lifetime so you might as well get one that is guaranteed to work. The money alone saved in doing your own quick repairs makes it worth it. Cuts nicely with no effort - does the job."

Cable cutter
Pros: Durable, High Quality, Rugged
Cons: Expensive
"I chose this product over a cheaper alternative because it has a couple of extra function. It crimps cable end tidies and reshapes furrels. The reshaper is not as good as I would have liked but the tool is otherwise excellent if a bit pricey."
