Hi, hope everyone is well.

I’m looking to buy some cutters to strip and chop 10mm cables and above, mainly domestic use.

I was thinking of either getting

1. CK cable cutter 240mm, these are the biggest version which would give me more leverage to easily cut with barely any effort.

2. Knipex step cut, saw these at elex show in Alexander place and they seemed alright, but I’m not too keen on how wide the open or that you need to open them completely to get some cables in and they are small and I have small hands so leverage is not great for me.

3. Knipex step cut XL, basically the same as 2 but the bigger version at 225mm which would be easier for me to use. Didn’t get to see these at elec show.

4. Knippex cable shears 200mm, these have good ratings, seems like they would cut well. Didn’t get to see these at elec show.

Anyone own any of these and would be able to tell me which one cuts through tails or more easily or if you got any other recommendations

Thanks
