Funny you should mention this as I was given a brand new set left by the 'bad tilers' however it go me thinking, what is the d24000 of the nipper world !!?? Are these it ?

 

[DHTiling]

Not sure Cam , looked at them a few times over the yrs , just never bought any..

anything carbide tipped and slightly offset does me good.

I normally use Rubi ( wish Sigma did them) .. i also tried the genesis ones on special at CTD.. toooo bulky.. so thought about these... been meaning to get some new nippers for weeks now..

Dunno if they'd be any use with the round jaws, would be hard to get into corners.
