The Knipex 78 06 125 Super Knips VDE is a 125 mm precision diagonal cutter designed for fine cutting work in electronics and precision mechanics. It features ground, very sharp cutting edges with a controlled micro-cutting edge offset for an ultra-precise shear cut and long service life. The handles are VDE-tested insulated multi-component sleeves, making the tool safe for work on live systems up to 1000 V.
