The tapered jaw profile provides enhanced access to tight, close-work areas and fine detail work while leaving a minimal pinch mark. By cutting at the center of the jaw rather than the tips, the tapered head design also helps protect the cutting edges from premature damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese cutters feature a \u003cstrong\u003elap joint construction\u003c\/strong\u003e, in which one half of the joint overlaps the other with an adjustable screw set through both halves.
