Carbon Steel 5" Value Line Side Cutters-Oval Head

A great choice for the beginner, the hobbyist, or for front counter use, these 5" carbon steel side cutters deliver reliable performance at an exceptional value. Made in Pakistan, these box joint side cutters with leaf springs offer a compelling alternative to higher-priced European cutters—without sacrificing the quality needed for everyday bench work.

Designed with an oval head and beveled edge jaws, these cutters excel at cutting soft non-ferrous metal wire including copper, gold, and silver. The beveled edge construction makes the jaws significantly stronger than flush cut cutters, and the oval head profile provides a more durable cutting tip compared to tapered head designs.

For best results and longest service life, cut as deep into the jaws as possible. Always wear eye protection when using side cutters. Side cutters should not be used for cutting sheet metal.
