Overview
The KUHN 27005 is a single-piece cutter built from alloy steel, including the handle, and weighs about 0.11 kilograms, roughly 4 ounces. Its light, all-metal build points to a compact hand tool rather than a heavy shop cutter.
KUHN is primarily known for agricultural equipment, and the 27005's alloy steel construction and light weight suggest a field or garden-scale cutter rather than an industrial one. No blade length or cutting capacity is listed, so match it to the material you plan to cut.

Who it's for
Fits buyers who need a compact, all-steel cutter and already know its cutting capacity from elsewhere. Not the right pick if you need the listing to confirm what gauge of wire or material it handles.
Pros and cons
- All alloy steel build for durability
- Light at roughly 4 ounces
- Cutting capacity or blade length isn't listed
- No details on intended material such as wire
Performance notes
Alloy steel construction throughout, including the handle, keeps this a durable but light tool at roughly 110 grams. There's no data on blade length or maximum cutting gauge, so capacity should be checked separately.
