KNIPEX Cable Shears 9511200 – Twin Cutting Edge, 8in

Designed and manufactured in Wuppertal-Cronenberg, Germany, KNIPEX Tools combine precision, durability, and thoughtful design for demanding cable work. The Cable Shears with Twin Cutting Edge (9511200) handle copper and aluminum cables and multi-stranded wires with care and control, delivering confident performance in busy environments.

Two precision-ground cutting edges are hardened for long life. The blades work in concert to deliver clean, deformation-free cuts, reducing the risk of damaged terminations. The initial cut uses the upper edge, while the final bite near the joint can be used if more bite is needed.

The tool features a comfortable, low-effort lever ratio and blade geometry, which reduces hand fatigue during repeated use. A guard, adjustable joint, and self-locking mechanism add safety and ease of maintenance in real-world use.
