AI Review Summary:
Across retailer reviews, buyers praise the snips’ sharp forged blades, smooth action, and comfortable grips, noting reliable cuts in HVAC duct, flashing, and stainless up to rated gauges. Many highlight the one-handed lock and color coding as convenient on busy jobs. A minority report the lock mechanism feeling stiff initially or the tool being bulkier than older patterns, though most say it loosens with use. Overall sentiment is strongly positive for durability, cut quality, and value for the price, with comments like “cuts stainless like butter,” and “best right-cut snips in my bag.”
