Not sure if this is a knock off, but the cutting head is flimsy and wiggles around side to side, unlike the previous pair of these I replaced. I tried tightening the screws to no avail. Bummed to have to look for a different brand.

the metal above the rubber handles grinds every time you squeeze them shut and will not open unless you manually open them by keeping a finger between the handles for every single cut. wish they still made the orignals with the plastic handles they were amazing.

I've worked in construction for 8 years now I've owned several pairs of snips from several different manufacturer's and I have to say without a doubt these are hands down the best pair I've ever bought. Well worth paying a little extra for. Typically I end up buying a new set every other yearI've had these for a year now and they may as well be brand new. Still make perfect cuts every time. That being said you should know I use these snips on a daily basis be it steel framing studs drip edge coil stock ect. They make the cut perfectly. Love them will be buying a second set when the time comes that's for sure.

It's ok, but not made in the USA like I thought it was. Still a good tool but I was disappointed when I saw where it was made.

I have both this and the 18g multidirectional Wiss. These are stronger and more precise and a cleaner cut than the Wiss. Much prefer these, will be returning the Wiss, which I had picked up out of convenience at a local hardware store to replace my well loved first pair of Malco av3's (thinking they'd be similar or better - wrong!).This will be my 3rd pair of Malco AV3s (I use it very frequently and sometimes on things I shouldn't, which eventually wears them down). I still use my blunt pairs around the house for many things. Very useful for all my needs.

This is a nice product for the money. It has all 3 cut options and is a bargain compared to competitive items. I have been very pleased with this product.

Snips are snips so I can't be too picky. However, I picked up a pair of these already owning a perfectly good pair of Wiss snips as I was tackling a large drop-ceiling job and expected to have help that wouldn't have tools. These were by far the more popular as the tip is just a bit longer and not as thick as the Wiss snips. This allowed for a lot more single, clean cuts rather than just gnawing through once the first cut doesn't quite reach the full distance of the cut.
