Flush EDGE pointy shear cutter for precise flush cutting of soft wire and delicate components at the bench. The slim, tapered jaws and light return spring give a crisp, controlled feel in the hand.
Features
- EDGE Series shear design with by-pass cutting action for clean, flush cuts on fine wires.
- Pointy head with symmetrical tips engineered for maximum access under components and into tight spaces.
- Narrow tapered jaws reach into confined areas on complex assemblies and settings.
- High-performance alloy steel construction with precision-ground cutting edges.
- Ergonomic, lightweight handles with textured grips for comfort and stable control.
- Return spring and opening limiter provide smooth, repeatable operation and help reduce hand fatigue.

Notes
- Flush cutters leave a practically smooth cut on one side of the material; because they cut so close, the cutting edges are more likely to be damaged if their limits are exceeded.
- Lindstrom cutters are not guaranteed; cutting limits printed on the handles apply to soft copper wire only.
- Metal alloys commonly used for jewelry are much harder than soft copper; dents in the cutting surface indicate that the material being cut exceeds the hardness limits of the cutters.
- If damage occurs to the tips, grind the undamaged side down to match the damaged side and continue to use the cutters.
- Lindstrom and other cutters used in jewelry work should be considered consumable labor-saving devices.
