Wire cutter
What is a "wire cutter"?
A wire cutter is a tool designed for cutting through wires or cables. It features two handles and a pair of sharp, angled blades that come together when the handles are squeezed. The blades are specifically shaped to grip and cut through wire cleanly, making it easier to trim or shorten electrical wires, cables, or other thin materials. Wire cutters are commonly used in electrical work, crafting, and various repair tasks.
Examples
