## Description

Product Description desertcart Basics Straight Cut Aviation Snip From the Manufacturer desertcart Basics

Review: Well-constructed, inexpensive: easy cuts of vinyl, tin, aluminum sheet metals - Had doubts this tool would perform up to those featured at Home Depot, Lowes, ACE, etc.  But it arrived looking well-constructed, robust. Our first test was during install of our Google Nest doorbell, button of which had to be placed over vinyl siding. We had to surgically cut vinyl to clear top of doorbell cam/button. We were impressed by how this tool got its snout into the tight space and easily snipped vinyl. The compound leverage of the tool made cutting so easy-- right up to the tip of the snips! That's an important feature: it means that the tool will cut aluminum, sheet steel and other media without stress.
Review: Great Value for Occasional Heavy-Duty Cutting - I purchased these desertcart Basics Straight Cut Aviation Snips for a rather unusual but necessary task: cutting up a metal credit card that my credit card company wouldn't take back for destruction. Regular scissors were completely ineffective, but these snips made quick work of the card, cutting through the thin metal effortlessly. The snips are very comfortable to hold in hand, and they felt sturdy and capable as I cut. The cuts were clean, and the blades are, as expected, very sharp. While I doubt I'll have frequent use for them, their durable feel suggests they would hold up well if I did. For the cheap price, these snips did exactly what I needed them to do. They're a great tool to have on hand for those unexpected jobs that require more cutting power than standard scissors.
