Overview

Model 68 01 200 from Knipex is a hand cutter with red plastic handles, weighing 0.74 pounds. Listed under the Tools cutters category, it suits users who want a lightweight tool for routine cutting jobs in a shop or toolbox.

Spec data for this listing is thin: no description or capacity rating came through from the seller, so the plastic handle color and sub-pound weight are the clearest facts available. That weight points to a compact, one-hand tool rather than a long-reach bolt cutter. Buyers who need a specific jaw opening or cutting capacity should check the listing photos or Knipex's own catalog before ordering.

  • 0.74 pound weight
  • Plastic handle construction

Who it's for

Best suited to a toolbox that just needs a lightweight, general-purpose cutter close at hand. Anyone needing confirmed cutting capacity for heavier wire or cable should look past this listing, since that spec is missing.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Lightweight at 0.74 pounds
  • Plastic handles for grip
Cons
  • No description or capacity spec provided
  • Cutting capacity not stated
  • Limited detail beyond weight and handle material

Performance notes

With plastic handles and a weight under three quarters of a pound, the tool is built for one-handed use rather than leverage-heavy cutting. The red handle color is a Knipex convention used to mark cutting tools apart from pliers in the line.
