Overview

Milwaukee's 48-22-4202 is an all metal cutter, with a metal handle as well as the jaws, weighing 8.3 ounces. Listed length is 1 inch, likely referring to the cutting jaw rather than the overall tool size.

All metal construction, jaws and handle alike, points to a tool built for durability over cushioned grip comfort. Milwaukee is an established maker of trade tools, and this listing keeps to core specs of material, length and weight without a stated cutting capacity.

Who it's for

Suited to buyers who want an all metal cutting hand tool from a known trade brand for light duty cutting tasks. Anyone needing a stated wire gauge or material cutting capacity should look for that spec elsewhere before buying.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • All metal jaws and handle
  • Light at 8.3 ounces
  • From an established trade tool brand
Cons
  • No cutting capacity or gauge rating listed
  • Metal handle offers less cushioning than rubberized grips

Performance notes

Metal jaws and a metal handle add durability at the cost of extra weight compared with plastic handled alternatives, though at 8.3 ounces this stays light overall. The 1 inch length figure likely describes the cutting jaw rather than the full tool, and no cutting capacity or gauge rating is published.
