Overview

Knipex's 71 01 200 is a diagonal cutting plier with an ergonomic handle, weighing 335 grams.

The 200mm size places it in Knipex's mid length diagonal cutter range, long enough for leverage on heavier gauge wire while staying compact for a tool pouch. Knipex's high leverage cutters are known in the trade for cutting hardened wire that lighter cutters struggle with, though this listing does not state a specific cutting capacity in wire gauge.

Who it's for

Electricians, technicians and anyone doing repeated wire cutting who wants a durable, ergonomic hand tool. Less relevant for buyers who only need a cutter for occasional household use, where a cheaper option would do.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The ergonomic handle shape is designed to reduce hand strain across repeated cuts, and the 335 gram weight keeps it light enough for all day carry in a tool pouch. No wire gauge capacity is stated in this listing, so match it against your own cutting needs before relying on it for heavier gauge work.
